Hillside Center for Sustainable Living in Newburyport, MA is taking an incredible new approach to sustainable design. Generating more solar electricity than 48 living units can use is a feat in and of itself, but Hillside Center has gone beyond just that by providing a shared electric vehicle fleet, creating central composting, salvaging building materials, harvesting rainwater, and planting a diverse (and edible) array of native plants.
ReVision installed over 1,000 solar panels across rooftops and parking canopies at Hillside Center as part of their strategy to create a net-positive community. Together these solar arrays will eliminate more than 200,000 pounds of carbon pollution from the atmosphere every year.
