Past Solarize Campaigns

Going Solar! STC was a community effort to bring affordable solar energy to Chemung and Steuben counties in 2015. Once that was completed, we ran solarize campaigns in Tompkins, Chemung, Steuben, and Schuyler Counties followed by a joint Community Solar campaign.

These campaigns were done in partnership with NYSERDA, The RenewableNY team, and other Cooperative Extension Offices around the Southern Tier, but they would not have been nearly as successful without the hard work of our dedicated volunteers and community partners These educational campaign brought approx. 840 kW of solar to the southern tier. 

Over the years, solar prices have changed dramatically and more options have become available for homeowners and renters to go solar. Though we are no longer doing campaigns, we are more than happy to discuss solar with anyone who is interested and help you compare your options.

If you are interested in learning more about your solar options please contact Guillermo Metz at gm52@cornell.edu or call (607) 272-2292, x185.
