Director, Brand & Marketing Scale Microgrid Solutions Ridgewood, New Jersey, United States
Gallaudet University, located in Washington D.C., is the premier institution of learning, teaching and research for deaf and hard-of-hearing students.
GU has partnered with Scale Microgrid Solutions to build an energy system for the university that will work in parallel with the utility to power the campus and, in the event of a grid outage, will provide nearly all the University’s electricity needs, allowing campus operations to continue with minimal disruption. In addition, electricity generated by the solar arrays will be available to Washington, D.C. residents, nonprofit organizations, and small businesses through the District of Columbia community solar program. Through this offering, as many as 1,500 nearby households or small businesses that lack the roof space or capital to install solar panels will be able to purchase solar energy generated at Gallaudet.
