I’m thinking that it would not have helped, as all the solar power gets dumped into the regional grid. There is probably no way to switch the electricity to only feed the campus. I’ve been learning about all this, because I’ve been looking at installing a solar array at our house. The equipment needed to switch over, along with the required batteries, are cost-prohibitive. Apparently, switching equipment is also potentially hazardous, as power company workers don’t know whether or not a line is ‘live’ or about to be switched on/off.
