Granite Commissions One of Nation's First Solar-Powered 建设 材料 Facilities

除去,加州。--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- 十大博彩正规平台公司, a wholly owned subsidiary of 十大正规博彩平台公司 (NYSE: GVA), announced today that one of its asphalt concrete and aggregate facilities in 殖民地土著,加州, is among the first in the nation to use solar energy to generate as much as 75 percent of its required power. 现场生产的清洁能源相当于为多达100个家庭提供电力。

"The commissioning of this site is significant not only for Granite and the 科切拉谷地 but also for the state of 加州," said
吉姆·罗伯茨, Granite president and chief executive officer. “这个装置帮助该州实现了减少温室气体排放的目标,并标志着Granite对环境的承诺,即减少我们材料设施中传统形式的电力消耗。”

该州减少温室气体排放的目标属于《全球变暖解决方案法案》(AB 32),这是一项由该州强制执行的计划,旨在到2020年实现温室气体排放的减少。

这个318千瓦(kW)的太阳能项目设计使用Amonix聚光光伏(CPV)太阳能发电系统。 六个系统中的每一个都有双轴跟踪,以最大限度地利用太阳光线,并产生清洁能源来运行十大博彩正规平台的设施。 Amonix CPV technology is also powering a Granite facility in 亚利桑那州图森市, which has three systems on-site.

All surplus power generated when the plant is not in use provides usable clean energy to 皇家灌溉区 (IID) customers. IID helped make the project possible through its photovoltaic solar solutions program, which has provided more than 600万美元 in incentives to residential and nonresidential customers since 2008.

The 殖民地土著 installation is representative of Granite's initiative to reduce energy emissions at its construction materials facilities by 2012. To further this effort, Granite has teamed with Amonix to install an additional 159 kW system at its Swan facility in 亚利桑那州. In addition, Granite recently installed a 2-megawatt (MW) Amonix system at the 亚利桑那大学太阳能科技园. Granite has also started construction on a 1 MW facility in 加州管理人员, using thin-film technology from Solar Frontier.

Granite's net metering facilities in 殖民地土著, 图森, and 管理人员 represent long-life sources of renewable energy with numerous environmental benefits. 这些项目将产生可接受的投资回报率,并将为Granite提供作为可再生能源承包商和开发商的宝贵经验。 Granite认为,由于其作为承包商的核心竞争力,在可再生资源丰富的地区拥有领先的市场占有率,可再生能源市场是一个有吸引力的增长和多元化空间。
