Navy Yard Solar Plant To Suck Up Valuable Reflective Light From Nearby Urban Outfitters Employee’s Sparkly American Apparel Onesies
Aww, yeah, Philadelphia, by the end of the year, we’re gonna have some SOLAR POWER UP IN THIS JAWN! Exelon is putting a solar station in down at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, in one of the brownfields currently not used by Urban Outfitters to rip off other people’s designs and stockpile the Vice Do’s & Don’ts Book. Respect is due:
At a cost of $8 million to $12 million, the 1- to 1.4-megawatt solar power plant will be built on six to eight acres of brownfields _ or idle, contaminated land. About 6,000 to 8,000 solar photovoltaic panels will generate enough juice to power 200 homes a year.
Whoa. Only 200? On the plus side, the entire site is 1,200 acres, so if Exelon needs more brownfields currently not used by Urban Outfitters to rip off other people’s designs and stockpile the Vice Do’s & Don’ts Book, we got ‘em!
