“This rooftop solar photovoltaic system has the capacity to generate 1500 kilowatts of energy. We estimate it will produce 44.5% of the plant’s electrical usage every month on average – and that is not only good for our bottom line but also for the environment,” said Bob Reid, plant GM.
The system also includes a Locus Data Acquisition System which measures the solar production and energy being produced every 5 minutes. It also contains a commercial weather station.
