Gregory the Great School: San Diego Commercial Solar Power
St. Gregory the Great in the Miramar Ranch North community of San Diego opened in 1985 and the parish school opened in 2009, making it a much newer addition to the San Diego County Catholic Diocese. The school and church are located in two separate buildings, so the church will receive a solar power system installed on a carport and the school will receive a roof-mounted solar panel array. Construction is slated to begin in April or May 2017. When installed, the combined solar energy systems will help save Gregory the Great more than $1.4 million over the first 25 years of going solar.
