Solar Photovoltaic Power Generation

The MBTA seeks to promote the development of renewable energy including solar photovoltaic facilities on its property for its own use. As the largest electricity consumer in Massachusetts, the MBTA has focused on the development of a systemwide approach to implement energy efficiency programs with a goal of clean renewable energy development on its large real estate holdings.


As part of this effort, the Authority is embarking on a series of renewable energy projects with the current focus on the development of solar photovoltaic arrays. The MBTA has identified two Massachusetts properties to launch this effort:


  1. Wonderland Parking Garage Roof in Revere
  2. Readville Yard 5 land parcel in Dedham
