Solar panels going up on Penhold Multiplex
The Penhold Regional Multiplex will soon be operating off of 1092 solar panels installed on its roof.
The panels are to be put in over the next four weeks by crews from CBI Solar in Red Deer.
Town council initially began exploring such a project last November, and decided to move forward with in April after securing a rebate from the Alberta Municipal Solar Program.
“This project creates an opportunity for a green energy focus on an existing building reducing our carbon footprint while also reducing operating costs for our facility,” says Mayor Mike Yargeau.
