Three Valleys Municipal Water District would like to increase the amount of renewable energy they generate at their Miramar treatment facility by installing photovoltaic solar panels. To achieve this goal, the clinic team is working with an outside contractor to install a pilot system that will provide 2 kW of power at the Three Valleys site. The team is also developing an expansion plan so Three Valleys can install 110 kW of solar panels in the future.
