Town of Henrietta plan to install 10KW solar photovoltaic (PV) electric generation system on top of the Town Hall's east wing roof. The system is anticipated to produce about 11,000 kWh annually, which will reduce the electricity the town has to purchase from RG&E. By generating 11,000 kWh from a renewable and non-polluting source, Henrietta effectively avoided the equivalent of over 7,600 kg of CO2 emission.

The town will use Federal Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) funds to help pay for a large portion of the cost for the solar electric system. The remaining cost will be financed by an incentive program administered by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA).
