Newport Solar Featured in The New York Times

We are honored to have contributed to the solar design of a stunning net zero home featured in The New York Times on June 23, 2025.

The article highlights a beautifully crafted residence in rural Rhode Island, designed by the internationally acclaimed architecture firm WORKac and built to Passive House standards with support from ZeroEnergy Design. The result is a home that integrates architectural vision, environmental performance, and off grid resilience, powered in part by a rooftop solar system installed by our team at Newport Solar.

As a trusted partner to builders and architects across Rhode Island, we take pride in supporting projects that reflect thoughtful design, long term sustainability, and the state’s clean energy vision. From historic homes in Providence to coastal retreats and wooded escapes, our team brings care, technical precision, and aesthetic focus to every installation. We are grateful to play a small part in a growing movement toward smarter, cleaner, and more resilient homes.
