Honeywell Community Solar Project Reaches Commercial Operation in New York

## Honeywell Community Solar Project Achieves Commercial Operation in Upstate New York Honeywell's Community Solar Project SB 13-2 has successfully reached commercial operation in upstate New York, marking a milestone in the company's broader renewable energy portfolio, according to a PR Newswire release. The 7.01 MW DC ground-mount solar facility was delivered as part of a US$41 million transaction and forms a component of Honeywell's 21 MW DC community solar portfolio in the region. The project is capable of powering approximately 875 homes annually with clean energy. While Honeywell is widely recognised across the maritime and industrial sectors for its automation, navigation, and safety technologies, the company's expanding renewable energy footprint reflects a broader corporate pivot toward sustainability — a trend increasingly relevant to maritime operators and port authorities seeking to reduce their own carbon footprints and align with tightening environmental regulations. Community solar projects of this nature allow subscribers, including commercial and industrial energy users, to benefit from solar-generated power without requiring on-site installations. For maritime facilities and port operators exploring shore power and electrification strategies, such off-site renewable procurement models represent a viable pathway to meeting decarbonisation targets. The project is expected to operate under a long-term community solar framework, consistent with New York State's ambitious clean energy mandates. New York has set a target of 70% renewable electricity by 2030, creating a supportive regulatory environment for projects of this scale. Honeywell's involvement in the energy transition extends beyond this single project, with the company actively developing technologies and infrastructure solutions aimed at reducing emissions across industrial sectors, including maritime applications such as integrated bridge systems, cargo management, and alternative fuel monitoring. *Source: PR Newswire*
