Local Oregon High School Launches New Solar Power System

Local Oregon newspaper the Bend Bugle recently reported that the Summit High School in Bend, OR plans to hold a “Flip the Switch” ceremony to celebrate the launch of the school’s new 5,344-watt, 32-panel solar power system.

According to the Bugle, the new solar project, which was funded through a grant from the Energy Trust of Oregon, is expected to provide 7,315 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of annual electricity savings and produce revenue of 10 cents per kWh through the sale of Green Tags.
