NC WARN donated yet another solar system to a deserving non-profit, this time Freedom House in Chapel Hill. Freedom House provides crisis and recovery services for substance addiction and mental illness. Both the solar hot water system, installed by Solar Consultants of Chapel Hill, and the solar photovoltaic system, installed by Yes Solar Solutions of Cary, will reduce the overall cost of energy for Freedom House and generate 6900 kilowatts of power.
The Yes Solar Solutions installers worked in 95 degree heat, (which is much hotter on the roof) to finish the solar array for the ribbon cutting August 2. Read more details in the News & Observer.
