The Bourse is going green with new Solar Roof panels

The Delaware Business Journal is currently writing an article on the Bourse’s full array of photovoltaic solar panels on its roof built by SolarDock – provider of a unique, patented, solar-panel mounting system for flat-roof & ground installations that requires no penetration of the mounting surface. SolarDock is proud to join Kaiserman Company Inc and the Solar Division of Union Electric Contracting Co. in announcing that installation of a 43.05 kW photovoltaic solar array has begun atop Philadelphia’s historic Bourse. Also make sure to listen to 88.5 WXPN next week for an interview on the project. Read the full article: http://www.delawarebusinessblog.com/PDFdocs/100527%20Bourse%20M-1.pdf
