Document Description
The project includes constructing a canopy mounted solar photovoltaic (PV) system in the parking area at the site. The project will cover about 10 acres of the parking area. Project activities include hole-boring, minor trenching, cement pouring, tree removing, canopy erecting, and photo array and electrical equipment installing. Standard construciton control measures will be implemented. The PV system could potentially generate 3 megawatts of electricity, which will reduce the site's power grid-based energy purchases and help meet the State's renewable portfolio standard target (Senate Bill 2 - First Extraordinary Session), to have one third of the State's electricity come from renewable sources by 2020.
