Just around last week, one of the university’s in the country had broken ground for solar facilities. In the report, it has been disclosed that the Rutgers University is now currently the holder of the title of the largest solar power facilities that can be found in a campus.

During the groundbreaking, present were some of the top officials of the school. This includes Richard L. McCormick who is the president of the school. Also, Joseph L. Fiordaliso was also there and he is the commissioner of the state’s Board of Public Utilities department.

Although the whole facilities for solar power has not yet been built yet, it has been disclosed that the whole facility would take up around seven acres. The solar power plant would be worth $10 million and it would be having 7000 solar panels. Those behind the project are estimating that the school would be able to use the power from the facility and that would be 10% savings on their electric bill.
