Langley B&B Exports 1 MWh of Clean Energy

B&B PV

The Princess and the Pea Bed and Breakfest in Langley yesterday reached the milestone of 1 MWh of clean energy being exported to the BC Hydro grid.  VREC installed the solar photovoltaic system that utilizes Day4 Energy panels three years ago.

Here is the press release from Princess and the Pea:

Today is a milestone day at Princess and the Pea

Sometime today we will have passed the 1 Megawatt hours of electricity that we have exported to “the grid”

That is one million watt hours of electricity

Over the past 3 years we have generated 4.418 1 Megawatt hours of electricity

You can see that we use on site just over 75% of the power we generate. The rest we export.

There are some days when we produce from our very modest solar power installation 100% of our own consumption.

This is a remarkable achievement and is a model for all BC.
