Deputy Prime Minister Marlin to Launch Solar Energy Project at the Library

These solar panels will generate about 2000 kwh of electricity a month, which means that the Library will save about a third on its total energy bill. An important aspect of this solar energy project will be educating the community on the benefits of solar power. Regular information sessions about the benefits of solar energy will be held for the general public in the hall of the library and schools will be invited to get educated about energy from the sun. The solar panels are only the first phase in the " Library Goes Green " campaign. The next phases will be the replacement of all lights in the building by LED Lights and the installation of inverter airconditioners. The amounts the library saves on its energy bill by ' going green " will be used to extend and improve the services of the library.
