Dell Installs Solar Panles in the Parking Lot – Provides 130,000 kWh of Power!
Dell has completed construction of a new 516-panel solar structure on its Round Rock, Texas headquarters campus. The solar array is designed to generate 130,000 kilowatt hours of solar power annually, helping to avoid around 145,000 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions per year. The structure, located in an employee parking lot, will shade 50 parking spaces and provide two charging stations for plug-in electric vehicles. Check out a photo of one of the structures below!
Dell now sources more than 25 percent of our global electricity needs from renewable sources, and were committed to doing more, said Dane Parker, Dells director of Americas Facilities and Global Environment, Health and Safety. Were launching solar pilot projects like this one in every region where we do business. We recently completed, for example, a solar project at our manufacturing site in Brazil that uses solar power to heat water for the buildings kitchen and cafeteria areas.
