Â鶹ÊÓƵ the Project

CU Boulder is taking advantage of virtual net metering, an innovative new program made possible by Colorado Senate Bill 21-26 in 2021, which enables organizations to benefit from the energy produced by offsite solar installations. The university will utilize solar power generated by the offsite net-metering solar project, without needing to install solar onsite. The offsite solar project feeds directly into the electric grid, with CU Boulder receiving credits for the renewable energy produced on its electric bills.
