Welcome to Ferris Road Solar Farm
Congratulations on signing up for community solar! Here’s where you can learn more about your solar farm.
The Ferris Road solar farm is the largest of the three solar farms located between Lawrenceville and Nicholville along Ferris Road. Located the furthest south, the Ferris Road solar farm is also the largest of these three community solar farms. Ferris Road will serve nearly 900 New Yorkers just like you, saving each subscriber up to 10% on their utility bills.
In addition to producing savings through clean, renewable energy, the Ferris Road community solar project will reduce greenhouse gases and pollution, helps preserve the nearby forests, parks, and nature areas including Sylvan Falls, Everton Falls Preserve, Knapp Station State Forest, and Adirondack Park.
