Systemwide Renewable Energy Program at University of California, Riverside – Riverside, CA

Birds-eye view of parking lot with solar canopies covering rows of parking spaces.

Pacifica provided construction project management to UC Riverside for this project installing 9,600 solar panels at parking lot 30 and 32. The project was built and fully financed by Sun Power with an overall system cost of $14.4 million.

The solar canopies were Pacifica’s third UCR Renewable Energy Project. The first was a 3.4 megawatt solar farm built in 2013, next to UCR’s Community Garden near parking lot 30. The second is a smaller solar parking canopy at the UC2OP IntelliCenter (UCPath Center) at Meridian Parkway in Riverside.
