The Bank of New York Mellon has installed a 76 kilowatt solar powered system at its offices in Everett, Massachusetts in a move to reduce its carbon footprint and cut costs.

The new system has begun supplying power to the bank’s 385,000 square foot office complex, home to more than 1000 employees and an operations centre for securities servicing and payments processing businesses.

The 5762 square foot array is a “direct tie” system, with electricity generated by 364 solar modules flowing directly into the building’s power lines, effectively reducing power needs from the utility in direct proportion to system output.

an interesting read, it’s always great to see how people have used energy efficient technologies and best practice to reduce their operating costs and carbon footprint, I’m off to read up more.
