Associated Students of Southern Oregon University

In 2013 the Associated Students of Southern Oregon University installed a 31.59 kW solar electric system at Stevenson Union. The power generated offsets the university's utility bills, reduces the school’s carbon footprint, and helps protect local air quality.

SOU - McLoughlin Residence Hall

Location:
Ashland, OR
Technology Type:
solar
PV System Size:
73.70 - kilowatts

In 2014 Southern Oregon University installed a 73.7 kW solar electric system at the McLoughlin Residence Hall and an 82.5kW system at nearby Shasta Residence Hall. These solar arrays were made possible with funding support from the Bonneville Environmental Foundation. These are the fourth and fifth major solar installations at SOU, following a 32.5kW system at the Stevenson Union and 56kW at the Higher Education Center in Medford, Oregon. The power generated by these systems offsets the university's utility bills, reduces the school's carbon footprint, and helps protect local air quality.... Read full project narrative >>

solar
PV System Size:
32.00 - kilowatts

In 2013, the Associated Students of Southern Oregon University installed a 31.59-kilowatt photovoltaic (PV) system at Stevenson Union. The power generated reduces the university's utility bills, works to displace fossil fuel-based electricity from the power grid and helps protect local air quality.

Energy monitoring services provided to the university by the Solar 4R Schools program connected live performance data from their PV system to the Energy Exploration Center at Solar4RSchools.org. Students and educators nationwide can chart, graph and analyze the system's performance data... Read full project narrative >>
