RIVERVIEW SOLAR TECHNOLOGY PARK (RSTP)
Riverview Solar Technology Park is New York’s first Solar Ready commerce park, where commercial real estate development blends seamlessly with solar technology!
- Demonstrates that RSTP can provide value and clean solar power to consumers of electricity at no additional cost
- Demonstrates the architecturally aesthetic appeal of commercial solar
- Demonstrates that solar acts as a direct business development tool (example: Unifrax made their final decision to come to RSTP based on the 100kW solar array provided)
Q: How much energy are you currently offsetting with solar in RSTP?
A: Enough energy to power about 30 homes. This is the equivalent of taking 535 cars off the road, OR Not importing 6,300 barrels of oil, OR planting 580 acres of forest!
Q: What are your future solar plans for RSTP?
A: We will dedicate underutilized land banks to large scale solar to accommodate current & future tenants
Q: What do you say to people that don’t think Solar can work in Buffalo? / What about all the snow in Buffalo?
A: Solar works in Buffalo BECAUSE of the cold weather. (data centers locate here because cold plays well with technology)
We get more average annual sun hours here in Buffalo than in Germany – the world’s largest end market for solar.
