<\/a><\/a>\nSupported by Pennsylvania\u2019s Solar for Schools grant program, the project will bring rooftop solar to both the college\u2019s main campus on Spring Garden Street and its Northeast Regional Campus. Structured as an energy performance contract, construction is expected to begin in summer 2026 and be completed by year-end.<\/p>
\n\"This project is an important step in our work to build a more sustainable and resilient campus for our students and the broader community,\" said Tim Trzaska, Director of Construction Management at CCP. \"As the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania continues to invest in renewable energy, we\u2019re proud to partner with Ameresco to contribute to that progress, serving as an example for peer institutions.\"<\/p>
\nThe project brings several long-term benefits:<\/p>
- \n
- \nOn-site renewable energy generation<\/b> at both campuses reduces long-term dependence on grid power and strengthens energy resilience across the college's facilities<\/li>\n
- \nParticipation in the Solar for Schools program<\/b> puts CCP at the center of Pennsylvania's push to expand renewable energy at educational institutions statewide<\/li>\n
- \nCurriculum enhancement opportunities<\/b> for students to learn more about the impact of renewable energy<\/li>\n<\/ul>
\n\"Higher education institutions have an important role to play in advancing renewable energy, and Community College of Philadelphia is doing exactly that,\" said Louis Maltezos, Co-President of Ameresco. \u201cThis project creates lasting value beyond the rooftop, supporting the college's resilience goals while giving students a direct connection to the renewable energy systems shaping their future.\u201d<\/p>
