Solar Energy at W & L


Virginia's largest solar-energy system is now up and running at Washington and Lee.

The arrays are in two locations on campus, one on the roof of Lewis Hall, the building that houses the University's School of Law, and the other on a custom-designed steel canopy over the University's parking deck.

The University is leasing the system from Secure Futures L.L.C., a solar-energy development company based in Staunton, Va., which owns and operates the panels through its subsidiary, Lexington Solar.
