PureSky Energy, a leader in sustainable energy solutions, has announced the operational launch of its new community solar farm project in Gouverneur, NY. This marks PureSky’s eighteenth site in New York, solidifying its position as a state leader in solar energy.
Project Details and Impact
The ASA Gouverneur NY Solar II project is located in Gouverneur, NY, with a size of 5,225 kW DC. It features 13,572 high-efficiency solar panels and is estimated to generate 6,364,050 kWh annually. This output is expected to power 878 homes each year and reduce CO2 emissions by 9,943,047 lbs, equivalent to removing 1,003 cars from the road. Additionally, the project is projected to save customers $2,292,249 over 30 years.
Community and Corporate Engagement
“We are thrilled to announce the operational launch of ASA Gouverneur NY Solar II,” said Nicole LeBlanc, Chief Operating Officer at PureSky Energy. “Community Solar aims to assist everyone from residential customers to small business owners. We are pleased that Glens Falls Hospital, which serves over 20 communities in New York, is an anchor customer of this farm. Our goal is to empower communities with renewable energy, and ASA Gouverneur NY Solar II is a shining example of that mission in action.”
The project also marks a significant milestone in PureSky’s partnership with Albany Med Health System. Both Columbia Memorial and Glens Falls Hospitals are now benefiting from long-term operating cost savings as anchor subscribers on two of PureSky’s solar farms. These partnerships are crucial for the development of community solar projects, and PureSky applauds Albany Med for their continued support of sustainable practices.
Karen Seward, Director of Energy Management for Albany Med Health System Hospital, stated, “Glens Falls Hospital is pleased to partner with PureSky on this project to provide a sustainable, renewable resource option for our power needs while also achieving important energy cost savings.”
