Meadow Ridge Receives Award for Solar Project 

May 21, 2024

REDDING, CT — The forthcoming solar array at CCRC Meadow Ridge has been recognized by the Connecticut Green Bank as a 2023 C-PACE Outstanding Project. The project, which is scheduled to come online late this year, will provide the senior living community with more than 732 kilowatts of clean, renewable power.

The Meadow Ridge solar array, currently in the pre-construction phase, was designed by West Hartford-based Verogy and realizes a long-time vision of the Meadow Ridge’s Resident Solar Committee and leadership. The project is funded, in part, through a commercial property-assessed clean energy (C-PACE) loan from the CT Green Bank.

The CT Green Bank annual awards recognize projects, partners, and others for “their commitment to the green economy and demonstrated leadership in their industries and communities.”

Meadow Ridge, developed by Senior Care Development, LLC and managed by Benchmark Senior Living, is located in this picturesque town and it has been recognized for excellence by U.S. News and World Report. Meadow Ridge sits on 136 acres and offers 285 independent-living apartment homes, as well as assisted living and memory care. The campus also features Ridge Crest, an award-winning, sub-acute rehabilitation and skilled nursing center.
