City Hall solar installation -- largest in Shoreline -- comes on line
Wednesday, March 24, 2010
Shoreline based Northwest Mechanical, Inc., installed the Made-in-Washington solar modules from Arlington based Silicon Energy. The solar array generates electric power while also providing shade for an entire row of cars on the upper parking level. Seattle City Light provided support for the solar installation through its Green Power Demonstration Program, which will include web-based data monitoring and an interpretive display in the City Hall lobby."

There will also be a Tesla electric roadster parked in the EV charging spaces on the upper parking deck. If you haven't seen this car, it is a supercar that just happens to run only on electricity. The City Hall parking garage has both 120V and 240V charging stations for electric vehicles.
