Paddock Solar Array

Description: The Paddock Solar Array was installed in an open field. Over the course of a year, the Paddock Solar Array is estimated to offset approximately 741 tons of Carbon Dioxide (CO2).

To put that in perspective, 741 tons of CO2 is equivalent to the emissions created from:

  • consuming 75,600 gallons of gasoline,
  • burning 735,000 pounds of coal; or,
  • driving 1.6 million miles in an average passenger vehicle.
