Yingli Green Energy has entered into a $10 million supply contract with solar facility developer SunDurance for 1.4MW of PV modules from December 2008 to January 2009. The modules will be installed in a solar power plant under construction on the Livingston Campus of Rutgers University, making the project the largest university campus solar energy facility in the U.S.
The $10 million project will be financed by Rutgers University and the Clean Energy Program of the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities, and is expected to generate close to 10 percent of the Livingston Campus’s energy demands.
