University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Solar Farm - Flyover

Producing an expected 7.86 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) the first year or approximately 2% of the typical electrical demand for the Urbana campus, the Solar Farm is the largest solar array installed on any Big Ten University campus. With a 5.87 megawatt (MW) direct current nameplate capacity, the Solar Farm will be able to provide as much as 4.86 MW alternating current to the UI electrical distribution grid at any one time. The highest/peak electricity demand from last year (FY15) was 79.04 MW.
