The Lawrenceville project is a single axis tracker which provides nearly 90% of the school’s electricity demand. The project included a more than 1,200 linear foot directional drill under a pond and golf course to the point of interconnection. The Lawrenceville School uses this facility as part of their curriculum to expand the STEAM program of the school. The project achieved commercial operations in April 2012.


The Lawrenceville School has become a national leader among secondary schools for its commitment to sustainability. This use of clean energy helps the Lawrenceville School fulfill its Green Campus Initiative. We also look forward to the many learning opportunities the Solar Farm will provide to our students and the local community. The School community will have access to a wealth of real-time monitoring information ranging from where the panels are currently positioned, to how much power is being generated, to how much energy a specific campus building is using, and much more. I am excited about the creative ways our teachers and students will use that data to help build a healthier, more sustainable world for future generations.
