High School Solar Cells Capture Sun's Energy
At the high school on Cowboy Way, east of the city, individual solar panels capable of producing 240 watts of energy each, are combined into arrays that can produce up to 5,000 watts an hour, or 5kW on a bright sunny day.
On average the school site has been producing about 21 kW hours each day. A typical home may use about 30 kW per day during the hottest summer months.
Statistics about the solar panel output is available for viewing here: LaBelle High School Solar System
