Overview

Rocky Hill School is an independent, coeducational, college preparatory school serving students from preschool through grade 12.

The solar PV array offsets 20% of Flynn Upper School Building’s annual electrical consumption. The school uses the solar array and a meteorological grade weather station as a tool in the classroom to teach the students about energy, weather, and renewable energy technology. The system will offset the equivalent of 29 tons of carbon dioxide annually, and generate enough clean energy to power 3 homes each year.
