SunPower Completes Solar System For Yolo County
Published: 27-Jul-2010
SunPower, a solar technology company, has completed the design and construction of a 1MW solar power system at the Yolo County Justice Campus in Woodland, California.
Yolo County, which owns the system and associated renewable energy credits, is financing the purchase using multiple funding sources, including clean renewable energy bonds and qualified energy conservation bonds available through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
In addition to the subsidized bonds, which were financed by Bank of America, SunPower assisted Yolo County in securing a 15-year loan from the California Energy Commission.
Bill Kelly, managing director of SunPower, said: "This may be the first solar project to make use of the federal stimulus legislation's clean energy renewable bonds, established last year, and among the first large-scale solar projects to be funded by a California Energy Commission loan. Yolo County is using the federal and state funding to save money, create jobs and produce clean energy for years to come."
