Piedmont Arts is powering the arts sustainably with a new roof-mounted solar array.
The 146-panel array will help offset the museum’s carbon footprint by producing around 40% of its power. Along with the impact of HVAC upgrades and LED lighting installed in 2023, the museum will see significantly reduced electrical expenses — its largest monthly operating cost — while helping sustain the arts and the planet for future generations.
This project was a key component of the Growth and Restoration Campaign, which focused on strengthening the museum’s long-term fiscal sustainability and allowing more of its resources to support exhibitions, arts education, and community programs.
