CITY HALL AND SOLAR CARPORT
The City Hall Solar Carport is directly connected to the utility’s distribution grid and
was brought on-line in August 2018. The solar system charges a battery storage unit
that provides power to the City’s electric vehicle charging stations. This means
that the electric vehicles that charge here are truly powered by the sun!
LOBBY KIOSK
An informational kiosk located in the City Hall lobby will
display real-time solar production and greenhouse gas emission
reduction statistics.
Did You Know?
According to the U.S. Department of Energy,
office equipment makes up about 16 percent of
an office’s energy use. And, in U.S. organizations,
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) estimates that more than $1 billion
each year is frittered away on electricity for
computer monitors that are left on. But, there
are a few things you can do to keep office
equipment from using unreasonable amounts
of power. To learn more, please see page 6.
