US (CA): Almond Growers Association's 1MW solar system completed

Central California Almond Growers Association (CCAGA), a grower-owned cooperative focused on almond hulling and shelling, has announced the completion of its 1MW ground-mounted solar system at its Kerman facility in California. CCAGA chose Cenergy Power to engineer and install the large solar system. 

CCAGA's new solar array will produce approximately 1,845,800 kWh of electricity annually for the association, the equivalent of reducing 1,403 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) -- equal to the emissions of over 1.3 million pounds of coal burned annually. CCAGA is also poised to save more than half of their Kerman -- K-3 facility's electricity costs annually with the implementation of the solar project.
