According to LIPA, the new installation, comprising a 15-kilowatt (kW) solar power system and a five-kW FC, is located at the Local 25 International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) headquarters in Hauppauge, where it will provide electric power and domestic hot water for the facility.

LIPA noted that the solar power system consists of 81 photovoltaic panels in a three array configuration.
