STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- In the city that never sleeps, every New York minute counts. And now, in just a minute, you can make a lasting impact on your energy bill and the environment. Say hello to Altus Power Community Solar, the no-strings-attached way to power your community with the benefits of clean, renewable energy. Altus Power (NYSE: AMPS), the largest commercial scale provider of clean electric power, is offering slots to both renters and homeowners who are looking for opportunities to save on their annual utility costs while supporting New York’s transition to clean electric power.

“New Yorkers are known for their hustle, and Community Solar fits right into our fast-paced lives. This program lets you tap into local solar farms without installing panels on your roof,” said Nichole Clennon, Vice President of Community Solar, Altus Power. “It’s a win-win: you save money on your electricity costs and reduce your community’s carbon footprint, all through a simple sign-up process, because every moment - and every kilowatt hour - counts.”

Through an Altus owned and operated solar project at the Morgan Stanley campus in Westchester County, a limited number of spots will be available to residents in the community, including Morgan Stanley employees.

As one of the pioneers of Community Solar, Altus Power currently serves more than 25,000 subscribers nationwide. The soon-to-be energized 2.8 megawatt solar array is located on parking canopies at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management’s campus in Purchase, N.Y., and is expected to save the carbon equivalent of burning more than 2.9 million pounds of coal or more than 4,700 barrels of oil as compared to utility power. Morgan Stanley will benefit from 40% of the discounted, clean electric power generated from the project, with the remaining benefits to be offered to residents in the local community, including Morgan Stanley employees.
