The company, whose East Coast division is headquartered in Greenwich, Connecticut, plans to leverage the funds to enter the increasingly active New York solar market.


NYSERDA allocated a total of $30 million in grant money to eligible solar contractors through a highly competitive grant process.

In addition to reducing overhead electricity costs for utility customers, the funds will aid in the fulfillment of New York's renewable energy portfolio standards, which call for 30% renewable energy by 2015.
