CPLI’s 7.6 Megawatt Fuel Cell Farm and Community Distributed Generation (CDG)
CPLI successfully completed the development of a 7.6-Megawatt fuel cell farm, now connected to the Long Island grid as part of a cleaner, alternative energy initiative. This project follows the Community Distributed Generation (CDG) model, a New York State program designed to increase access to cleaner energy across various communities.
Through this initiative, CPLI has made it possible for a wide range of participants—including renters, co-op and condo owners, small businesses, and homeowners—to benefit from renewable energy without needing to install solar panels on their properties. The electricity produced by the fuel cell farm is distributed among multiple subscribers, who receive energy credits that reduce their monthly PSEG Long Island electric bills.
By enabling these subscribers to access affordable and sustainable energy, CPLI’s fuel cell farm and CDG model provide a practical solution for those who cannot host renewable energy systems at their locations.
