Bus Lot Solar Array

Description: The Bus Lot Solar Array was installed on an open field. Over the course of a year, the Bus Lot Solar Array is estimated to offset approximately 736 tons of Carbon Dioxide (CO2).

To put that in perspective, 736 tons of CO2 is equivalent to the emissions created from:

  • driving 1.64 million miles in an average passenger vehicle.
  • consuming 75,000 gallons of gasoline,
  • burning 730,000 pounds of coal; or,
