Project Description
On-Campus Solar Farm 3.0

In September 2022, the Associate Vice Chancellor and Executive Director of Facilities & Services Ehab Kamarah presented a summary of options for meeting our iCAP 2020 objective for clean energy use to Chancellor Jones.  One option was to add a third on-site solar farm, in conjunction with an indirect power purchase agreement.  The idea was discussed further at the Sustainability Council, and F&S is now investigating the opportunities for adding another solar farm on South Farms, between Solar Farm 1.0 and Solar Farm 2.0.

Solar Farm 1.0

The 20.8 acre Solar Farm on the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign South Farms is a Power Purchase Agreement with Phoenix Solar South Farms, LLC, producing an estimated 7, 864 MWh/year of solar energy used solely by the Urbana campus.
