Huston Solar installed a 7.7 kWAC Solar system on top of our newly remolded Pre-fabrication building at our Lafayette location. The design and installation of this system will ultimately make this building net-zero for electrical consumption. Huston sees the value in generating alternative energy for our company as well as the environment. This is the first installation of solar panels on one of the buildings, but we do have plans to do more at our other locations. We have received many positive comments on our new addition as it can be seen by the road.
