UC Davis West Village is breaking ground by creating a model zero net energy community.

UC Davis West Village is a new campus neighborhood located on UC Davis land adjacent to the core campus in Davis, California. It is designed to enable faculty, staff and students to live near campus, take advantage of environmentally friendly transportation options, and participate fully in campus life.
West Village Community Partners has contracted with SunPower to install a four-megawatt solar photovoltaic system to serve its student housing, mixed use buildings and recreation center and meet the zero net energy goal.
