Rooftop
Goodwill San Antonio has selected Big Sun Solar to install rooftop solar at 4 of their San Antonio locations to include Blanco North, Potranco, Live Oak and Bandera. Not only does transitioning to solar energy support Goodwill San Antonio’s sustainability mission, they will be lowering their facilities operational costs with energy savings. The Goodwill San Antonio solar rooftop project is projected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to recycling 180 tons of waste. This will be the first wave of installments, as the non-profit looks to add solar panels to more buildings with the operations in the future.
This project aligns with Goodwill San Antonio’s sustainability efforts by helping to reduce our carbon footprint. With the incentives from the Inflation Reduction Act and CPS Energy rebates, the timing was ideal for us to begin our transition to solar energy.
City of San Antonio selects Big Sun Solar for $30 million onsite solar project, largest for a municipality in Texas and second in US. Click to learn more.
