It is anticipated that the school district would be saving considerable amount of money on energy costs.

The John Jay school campus consists of a middle school as well as a high school and is turning towards the solar way with two solar installations with a capacity of 50 kW. Each one of these solar installations consists of 218 solar panels while helping the school district in slashing its annual energy expenses by $35,000.
