A two-football-field-sized roof covered with 3,700 solar panels was unveiled by Half Moon Ventures, LLC (HMV), a developer of solar and wind energy projects. The multi-million dollar installation blankets the rooftop of i.Park Hudson in Yonkers, New York. The project is one of the largest in the state of New York. The roof will generate significant energy for the many users of electricity housed in the 24-acre technology, office and industrial complex in the heart of Yonkers.
“We are thrilled to bring this cutting-edge solar energy system to i.Park Hudson in Yonkers at no cost to the state, county, city or landlord,” said CEO of Half Moon Ventures, Michael Hastings. “The environmental benefits, including easing demand on the grid and reducing carbon emissions, are tremendous. There are many other benefits as well. This is a win-win on a very large scale and we hope that this project provides a template and role model for future commercial energy projects here in New York and beyond.”
