University of Pennsylvania Solar PPA Ribbon Cutting
The University of Pennsylvania has moved one step closer towards its goal of 100% carbon neutrality on campus by 2042. In December 2023, Great Cove I and II - two solar facilities constructed in Central Pennsylvania as a result of Penn’s power purchase agreement (PPA) - reached their commercial operation date. As both facilities now begin to generate power, the project will produce enough energy to power 70% of the total electricity demand of Penn's academic campus and the University of Pennsylvania Health System in the Greater Philadelphia area.
