Document Description
Caltrans proposes to install solar panels on the rooftops of two existing buildings at the Caltrans Transportation Lab (Translab) site: the Structural Materials Building and the Geotech Building. This project is part of Caltrans' commitment to the Clean Renewable Energy Bond program (CREB) and is one of several projects in District 3 that will install Photovoltaic (PV), or solar, panels on various state-owned buildings within the district. The purpose of this project is to provide clean, renewable energy and comply with the CREB program and the Governor's Executive Order (E.O.) S-20-04 states that all state-owned facilities are to take measures to reduce grid-based energy purchases by the year 2015.
