Delmont Public Library Receives Grant from WPPSEF for Solar PV Panels to Mitigate Energy Costs

February 4, 2020

The 34Kw solar pv system will meet all the power needs of the new library and also serve as a hands-on teaching tool about solar energy for library patrons. Other sustainable attributes include geothermal heating and cooling to provide a year-round low cost and a rainwater collection system to collect and reuse rainwater for landscape irrigation and to mitigate runoff and relieve the storm water system of inflow. LED lighting and energy-saving insulation will also mitigate energy costs with a target of net zero energy consumption.
