"This spring, a handful of towns took advantage of a low-cost solar leasing program through Solar Liberty out of Buffalo and backed by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) to install solar panels on their municipal buildings.
Solar Liberty is one of the largest NYSERDA-approved solar installers in the state. There were no upfront costs and Solar Liberty maintains the panels for 15 years.
Danby is the latest municipality to jump on board following Dryden and Ulysses...The Town of Dryden installed its solar panels in May on the Town Hall and highway garage. The cost to lease the panels is $400 a month for both buildings. ...The Town Hall has a 24-kilowatt array, and the highway garage has a 46-kilowatt array. The solar panels produce enough electricity to cover 30 percent of the Town Hall’s electric bill and 100 percent of the bill for the town’s highway garage, said Dan Kwasnowski, director of planning in Dryden...“It’s a great deal,” Kwasnowski said of the leasing program. “It’s expected the town will save $15,000 over the 15-year lease.”"
Type of system: Photovoltaic (electrical)
