NEW YORK, NEW YORK (October 3, 2024) INDUS Realty Trust, Inc. (INDUS or the Company), a U.S.-based logistics real estate business, announced the successful completion of its first rooftop solar energy installations at two buildings within its New England Tradeport (NETP) logistics park in Windsor, Connecticut.

Key Highlights:

  • Renewable Energy Generation: The two solar arrays, consisting of 2,560 high-efficiency modules, are estimated to produce approximately 1,669,300 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of clean energy annually.
  • Environmental Impact: These projects will offset approximately 1,166 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually, equivalent to the emissions from about 277 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles driven for one year.
  • Financial Benefits: The projects capitalize on incentives available through the Connecticut Non-Residential Energy Solutions (NRES) program.

“We are thrilled to celebrate the completion of the solar installations at 110 and 220 Tradeport Drive,” stated Michael Gamzon, President and CEO of INDUS. “These projects mark a major step forward in our commitment to increasing our portfolio’s environmental sustainability. This achievement would not have been possible without the hard work by members of our team as well as the dedicated professionals at Verogy and Titan Energy.”

INDUS collaborated with Verogy, a West Hartford-based solar energy developer, and Titan Energy, which provided energy consultancy services for the project. William Herchel, CEO of Verogy, commented, “The installation of these rooftop solar arrays aligns with INDUS’ sustainability initiatives, including making a positive impact on the communities in which INDUS operates.” Adam Teff, General Manager of TitanGen, Titan Energy’s renewable energy division, added, “We are thrilled to have supported INDUS in their journey towards a greener future, furthering their commitment to both environmental responsibility and sustainability.”
