Ted and Sierra Flanigan’s Clean Energy Crash Course: The Millbrook Solar Story

Ted and Sierra Flanigan host this Clean Energy Crash Course focusing on the Millbrook School solar story, a project in which all the stars aligned. Not only did the solar system take a huge chunk out of an institution’s carbon footprint, but it was a good deal from the start, no money down and first year savings of over $50,000. Ted explains the Benefactor Investment Model that was developed for the project, giving credit to Millbrook Alum Mark Hopkinson. The system was ultimately financed with a highly favorable PPA thanks to a New York State grant.
