Johns Hopkins Enters Into Solar Power Agreement With Retail Provider
April 23,2019 Johns Hopkins University has entered into a long-term agreement to supply its campuses with more than 250,000 megawatt hours of solar power per year. The 15-year agreement with Baltimore-based Constellation, an Exelon company, commences in 2021, and will allow Johns Hopkins to meet roughly two-thirds of the university’s overall electricity needs with solar power. Constellation will buy energy and renewable energy certificates (RECs) from a new 175 megawatt solar plant being developed in Virginia on former working timber land and will sell the power and project-specific RECs to Johns Hopkins. "The agreement leverages the Constellation Offsite Renewables (CORe) offering, which increases access to renewable energy for commercial and industrial customers, enabling the university to contribute to the development of the solar project," the university said With the exception of electricity generated by on-site solar and cogeneration, Johns Hopkins campuses in Maryland and the District of Columbia that will receive solar energy through this deal include Homewood, Peabody Institute, Montgomery County, Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies, Applied Physics Laboratory (which would initially purchase only project-specific RECs), Keswick and Mount Washington. The electricity needs of the School of Medicine and the Bloomberg School of Public Health will be partially covered through this agreement while the School of Nursing is not included.
