We’ve written about Google’s impressive 1,600 kilowatt solar panel project for the Googleplex in Mountain View.
But did you know that Microsoft has a very large solar panel installation too?
It turns out that Microsoft installed their solar panels first and were the largest solar installation in Silicon Valley until Google outdid them by creating a system that is approximately three times as big.
Microsoft’s solar panel project is still impressive though, generating enough solar power at peak capacity that could power 500 homes.
Does anyone know of any other Silicon Valley companies that have a lot of installed solar power? Leave a comment.
