Recent testing by Pacific Power Renewables revealed that this solar installation was producing electricity at 111% of expected kWh.

According to Roxanne Yonn Executive Director of the Museum: “Going solar was a strategic move for the Aerospace Museum of California. We save on energy costs and we can use this as an educational tool for our students. The STEM principles of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math are all demonstrated through the use of solar. In partnering with Pacific Power Renewables, we created an exhibit that demonstrates how solar works inspiring the scientists of tomorrow.”
