Buildings That Generate About 40% of Their Energy Needs
According to Tahir, Bay View will have 7 megawatts of installed renewable energy, which will be able to power about 40% of the campus’ energy needs. Google’s forthcoming Charleston East campus, a project in the final phase of construction, will have the same energy capabilities.
Overall, Bay View’s solar panels and nearby wind farms will allow the campus to be powered by renewable energy 90% of the time, Google said.
