Sunrise Solar Solutions LLC, selected by the Board to install one of the largest residential solar energy systems in Westchester County, began the installation which should be completed by December 31, 2016. The system is being installed on the rooftops of Buildings 1 and 2, both seven-story buildings, and the two-story Clubhouse.
The Board chose the company because of its history of successful installations in the county and its local presence. The system is projected to generate enough to cover 25 percent of the coop’s electrical needs for its common areas, such as the lobbies, hallways, exterior lighting, clubhouse and gatehouse. And thanks to the combination of utility savings, tax credits and incentives, the Board estimates the net cost of solar for the complex at an astonishing 45 percent of the gross cost.

From Sunrise Solar's July newsletter:
Scarborough Manor Board Members and the Sunrise Solar team met this week to celebrate the amazing success of the new installation at Scarborough Manor: "the largest residential solar energy installation in Westchester County." Scarborough Manor, a 205-unit cooperative residential complex in Ossining, N.Y., is now equipped to generate enough energy to power 25 percent of the co-op's projected electrical needs for the entire complex, including its common areas, such as the lobbies, hallways, exterior lighting, clubhouse and gatehouse. Those hefty utility savings, combined with current tax credits and incentives, create an exceptional value for the co-op; in fact, Scarborough Manor board president Gary Montesano estimates the net cost of solar for the complex at an astonishing 45 percent of the gross cost. "That's a phenomenal investment," Mr. Montesano says.
