MIDDLETOWN, Conn., June 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Greenskies Renewable Energy LLC ("Greenskies"), a Clean Focus Company, completed the installation of a solar array in Lowville, New York comprised of 7,939 solar photovoltaic panels. This project will provide clean, renewable energy for Lewis County.
The completed solar array, located on 10 acres of land owned by Lewis County, New York, went on-line May 7, 2018.
The power produced from the solar array will power Lewis County under a 20-year PPA, benefiting Lewis County buildings with clean, renewable energy and lower energy bills.

"We understand the value of investing in clean energy, and we are excited to begin reaping the benefits of our partnership with Greenskies. The solar array in Lewis County is expected to save the taxpayers of our community $3 million in energy expenses over the 20-year life of the project."
