Grosvenor Launches Solar Arrays at Two San Jose Properties

Grosvenor has launched solar power arrays at two of its office properties in San Jose. The installations represent the latest step in the company’s ongoing initiative to increase efficiency and reduce climate impact across its entire portfolio. 

The solar installations at the three-building Orchard Trimble property in North San Jose and at 560 South Winchester in San Jose’s West Valley, are estimated to collectively generate 2,899 MWh of energy annually. This is sufficient to power 400 homes for a year and is equivalent to the carbon sequestered by 2,364 acres of U.S. forests over the same period, according to Grosvenor.

“We’re very proud to complete these large solar installations that contribute meaningfully to our company-wide efforts to reduce carbon emissions,” said Eric Nogueiro, senior asset manager at Grosvenor in San Francisco. “The Orchard Trimble and 560 South Winchester solar arrays offer significant energy consumption offsets, and the addition of AI-driven building management systems is further helping us to optimize energy usage elsewhere in our portfolio.”
