San Diego Electrical Training Center Equipped for Solar Power

Published 10/6/2002

The 32,000-sf San Diego Electrical Training Center just became the largest commercial building in San Diego powered by solar energy. The facility's photovoltaic system, installed by students, currently provides 50% of needed electricity, with the remaining sections to be installed by classes throughout the school year. The completed system will be large enough to power the entire facility. The Center provides hands-on training for union electricians in installation of traditional and renewable energy solutions.
