SunPower (SPWR) Completes $1.8-MW Installation at Bloomberg's N.J. Campus

Article Stock Quotes (1) Comments (0)

SunPower Corp. (Nasdaq: SPWR) has completed a 1.8-megawatt solar power system for Bloomberg in New Jersey. The eight-acre, ground-mounted solar tracking system is generating the equivalent of 58 percent of electricity demand at the 100,000-square-foot main building at Bloomberg's Skillman, N.J. campus. It is the first completed renewable energy project at a Bloomberg facility.

Bloomberg is buying the power generated from the system at prices below retail rates, providing a long-term hedge against rising power prices with no initial capital investment. The system is owned by a subsidiary of Integrys Energy Services, Inc., which is also selling the solar renewable energy credits and environmental attributes associated with the project. The system is being partially financed through PSE&G's Solar Loan Program, through which PSE&G offers low-interest loans for solar power development.
