World’s Largest Solar Manufacturing Plant In The Works!
Happy Wednesday, we’re almost there! If you’ve ever read this blog you know, we ADORE solar power. Solar powered cars, houses, heck, anything that uses the power of the sun to run makes us happy and its why we at Northern Tool are trying hard to supply all of YOU with solar powered products. When we find great news about solar power, therefore, it makes our whole week. It’s only Wednesday, but consider our week made.Why? Simple, the world’s LARGEST solar panel manufacturing plant is about to be built. Granted, it’s being built in Dubai, which is unfortunate as it then requires a great deal of energy to actually transport all of those beautiful solar panels, but nevertheless, it is being built. The fact that it’s being built means there is quite obviously a demand. According to reports, “Construction is to start in November, and is scheduled to be completed at the end of 2010. The roughly 93 000 square meter manufacturing plant, Solar Technologies FZE, will be able to produce solar panels of up to 5.7 square meters.” Yes!
The company behind the operation hopes that a plant of this size will help not only produce more solar panels, but reduce the costs as well, hopefully getting the technology into a great deal more hands, a great deal sooner. The best news of all is, you don’t have to wait to dive head first into solar technology. Head over to Northern Tool and start doing some solar shopping!
