Thanks to a new refundable tax credit, competitive pricing, and State and City programs, solar technology has become more affordable and financially accessible. Seven UNHP multifamily buildings have installed solar photovoltaic arrays and UNHP hopes to add solar technology to another property by 2025.

UNHP Multifamily Buildings Ready for the Solarverse

by UNHP
Just in time to celebrate our 40th anniversary, UNHP is happy to announce that our long-desired goal of installing solar panels in our affordable multifamily buildings is finally in reach thanks to a combination of low-cost programs, tax incentives, and our continued persistence in pursuit of increased sustainability. Seven buildings will move forward with solar in 2023.

“UNHP has emerged as a thought leader on multi-family housing distress-a key issue facing all boroughs of New York City.”
