Dow Jones & Company has chosen SunPower Corp. (Nasdaq: SPWRA, SPWRB) to build a previously announced 4.1-megawatts (MW) solar power system at the Dow Jones corporate offices in central New Jersey.
The system will include 3.6 MW of elevated solar panels above parking areas and a 522-kilowatt rooftop installation. When completed early next year, the system will be one of the nation’s largest solar power installations operating at a corporate site, and is expected to generate the equivalent of 15% of current electricity needs for Dow Jones’ South Brunswick campus.
SunPower will install its T5 Solar Roof Tile, a non-penetrating rooftop product that combines a high-efficiency SunPower solar panel, frame and mounting system into a single pre-engineered unit.
The system is being partially financed through PSE&G’s Solar Loan Program, through which PSE&G (NYSE: PEG) offers loans for solar power.
Dow Jones & Company is a News Corporation company (Nasdaq: NWS, NWSA).
