Georgia-based Suniva Inc. has supplied its OPTimus solar panels for a canopy project at NRG Park in Houston.
The 350-acre sports and entertainment complex hosts several renewable energy installations, including a solar canopy system that covers pedestrian walkways and gathering places to provide shade to visitors and help power the facilities. Other projects include solar-powered mobile phone charging stations, electric vehicle charging stations and energy-efficient LED lights inside and on the roof of the stadium.
NRG led the development and installation of these energy technology upgrades over an 18-month period.
