Sunpower just announced that it has finished installing a 500KW solar power system for Harvard University. The system, which has been installed on top of the Arsenal on the Charles complex, was built with SunPower T5 Solar Roof Tile and should generate enough energy to power 83 homes, offsetting 367 metric tons of CO2 annually.

In a press release, Tom Leyden, managing director at SunPower, commented on the news:

“It is clear to us that Harvard has a serious commitment to environmental sustainability, and is looking for ways to creatively reduce operating costs on campus. We feel this project serves both objectives. The T5 Roof Tile will deliver more solar energy per square meter and greater energy savings than conventional systems.”
