Louisiana isn’t known as a renewable energy state. ¾ÅÉ« wants to change that.
¾ÅÉ« is the only university in Louisiana, and one of a handful nationwide, that can examine solar technology outside and in a controlled, laboratory space.
Its new Photovoltaic Applied ¾ÅÉ« and Testing Laboratory has two sites: a 6-acre array of 4,200 solar panels in University ¾ÅÉ« Park, and lab space within campus’ Rougeau Hall that’s filled with equipment that tests how the sun degrades the modules.
