Since announcing plans to install solar energy panels, storage systems, and electric vehicle (EV) charging stations across six locations throughout California, State Fund has made significant progress.
The solar installations are part of a broader sustainability strategy that State Fund has been rolling out for several years and will continue to ramp up in the years to come. When complete, these solar installations will significantly reduce State Fund’s carbon footprint, offset tons of green-house-gas emissions across California over the next 20 years, and save millions in energy costs.
Following is a breakdown of how much energy the program will produce each year and how much will be offset over time in each location:
