SAN DIEGO (April 15, 2008) -- Four new solar carports at Naval Base San
Diego will provide approximately 155,000 kilowatts per year, producing
enough energy to power approximately 27 homes at today''s average
consumption. The Naval Facilities Engineering Command Southwest owned
and maintained solar carports will replace power normally purchased
from off-base suppliers and will reduce the cost of power to the region
and tenants at the bases over time. U.S. Navy photo (RELEASED)
