近日, Silicon Valley Human Society的全新动物收容所正利用太阳能组件,以满足其30-40%的电力需求. 其中,所使用的1335个光伏组件包括一个274千瓦的太阳能停车场遮荫结构和一个屋顶太阳能系统。
最终Tioga Energy将拥有并经营该电力系统。据估计，该系统的安装将可节省能源费用50,000美元。Human Society在没有资本支出的情况下运用该技术,原因在于与Tioga购买电力的协议。
收容所总统，Christine Benninger表示，该系统的安装不仅有助于动物们,而且对于高效环保节能有完美的演绎,同时与大自然也更加和谐.
Animal Shelter Goes Solar
The Silicon Valley Human Society’s new animal shelter is using solar modules to produce about 30-40 percent of its electricity. 1,335 photovoltaic modules comprise a 274-kilowatt solar parking shade structure and rooftop solar system.
Tioga Energy owns and operates the power system. It is estimated that the installation will save $50,000 in energy costs. The Humane Society was able to have the solar technology installed with no capital outlay, due to an agreement with Tioga to purchase the power from them. The shelter’s president, Christine Benninger said, “Today, our Animal Community Center not only promotes animals, but also showcases the ease and beauty of energy efficiency, water saving, and building in harmony with nature.”
