Project Description
Brookdale Community College, in partnership with Luminace, a Brookfield Renewable company, installed parking lot solar canopies on its Lincroft and Wall Township campuses in Monmouth County, New Jersey.
The 5.4‑MWdc Brookdale solar project features over 10,000 modules across the two campuses. The expedited design and construction for this project serves as a model for future projects in other New Jersey counties as they pursue goals to reduce overall electric bills, curtail carbon footprints, and counter rising electricity costs.
