Description

Description

The Greater Johnstown School District is proposing an Energy Performance Contract project that includes the installation of a revenue-generating solar array on nine acres behind Johnstown High School. The solar array will provide clean, renewable electricity to meet the energy needs of district buildings for the next 20 to 30 years. The project is expected to pay for itself through guaranteed energy savings, state aid reimbursement, and other incentives, with no tax impact. The district has contracted the John W. Danforth Company as the Energy Service Company responsible for maintaining the solar array and ensuring energy savings over an 18-year period. The project is currently in the design phase and pending final approval from the New York State Education Department and clearance by the Town of Johnstown, installation is slated to begin in fall 2025 and take approximately 12 months.
