ARMONK, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Brightcore Energy, a leader in developing and implementing renewable energy solutions for the commercial and institutional markets, announced it has been awarded every community solar project that it submitted to New Jersey’s Community Solar Energy Program (CSEP). The CSEP, voted in by the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU) in August of 2023 and signed by Governor Phil Murphy in January of this year, brings more sustainable energy sources to New Jersey and helps to eliminate barriers to local communities' access to affordable, equitable, and clean energy. New Jersey faces a new and rapidly growing demand for community solar following the success of the two pilot programs in 2018 and 2020. In November 2023, the permanent program was launched with a capacity block of 225 megawatts (MW), attracting over 300 applications, representing a total of over 300MW. Brightcore has been awarded all 29 projects it submitted to date, 19 in the state’s Year 2 Pilot Program and another 10 in its permanent program. The first 19 projects, totaling over 7.4MW, have been successfully completed and are now generating solar energy to power local schools, businesses, hospitals, and government buildings

Brightcore Energy, a New York-based firm that implements renewable energy solutions for the commercial and institutional markets, recently announced it is developing a portfolio of solar projects for the Facilities Organization at Princeton University, which will be installed on rooftop- and canopy-mounted structures on the university’s campus in Princeton.Princeton University has committed to achieving Net Carbon Neutrality by 2046. A key component of Princeton’s Sustainability Action Plan is using renewables as the campus energy source.The project consists of four arrays, two of which will be rooftop-mounted and two canopy-mounted. The rooftop projects will be installed on the Tiger and Cub buildings, while the canopy-mounted projects will be at the Meadows and Stadium garages.In its entirety, the solar arrays will consist of 4,039 panels and are projected to produce an estimated 2,588 megawatt hours of electricity annually. Brightcore expects to begin constructing the projects in the summer.“We are so very proud to have been selected for this project,” Mike Richter, president of Brightcore, said. “The university has rigorous selection standards and was extremely thoughtful and supportive throughout the process. The school has shown great leadership with its ambitious and detailed sustainability plans, and we are excited to play a role in that.”Once operational, the estimated annual production will prevent approximately 1,834 metric tons of CO2 from entering the atmosphere, the equivalent of burning more than 2 million pounds of coal
