A Solar Project Grows in Brooklyn

A multi-tenant commercial facility in Brooklyn is hosting a landmark project – New York City’s first community solar development.

The project is the first of several under development by UGE – a global provider of solar solutions to the commercial and industrial sectors– and by Gotham Community Solar, a company owned by Peter Davidson, who led the U.S. Department of Energy Loans Program Office from 2013 through 2015.
