The thousands of photovoltaic modules at the University of Hawaii Maui College campus not only provides enough energy for the Kahului college but are a teaching tool for its students.
The 3,360 photovoltaic modules, along with its battery storage system, have made UH-MC a virtually “net-zero” campus, which means it produces as much energy as it uses, the college announced recently. In the UH system, UH-MC is the second school behind Leeward Community College, which became the first net-zero UH campus in July.
