Case Study: Santa Rosa Junior College achieves sustainability and energy cost savings with Stem solar-plus-storage
A Stem Case Study
Santa Rosa Junior College
Santa Rosa Junior College, a large community college in California, sought to achieve carbon neutrality and zero net energy while also minimizing disruptions from power shutdowns during fire season. To meet these sustainability and resilience goals, the college partnered with vendor Stem to implement a solar plus storage solution.
Stem installed a 2.6MW solar carport and a 1.3MW energy storage system managed by its Athena software. This solution allows the campus to provide up to 35% of its own electricity with clean, onsite generation. The system optimizes energy use to reduce costs, enables participation in demand response programs, and provides backup power to essential buildings, shielding the college from grid disruptions and unnecessary expenses.
