California Cannabis Firm Completes Renewable Energy Project

1550

Canndescent has completed its commercial-scale solar project in Desert Springs, California, the company announced on Monday. The 282.6-kilowatt system uses 734 solar modules to power the production facility. The Environmental Protection Agency and National Renewable Energy laboratory estimates the system offsets as much carbon as a 430-acre forest, reducing annual carbon emission by 365 metric tons.

The California Energy Commission requires all new nonresidential buildings to have rooftop solar by 2023.
