>>Dear N51/N52 Occupants:
>>
>>I wanted to make you aware that the roof of our building will be 
>>"hosting" solar panels within the next few months.  No action is required 
>>on your part, nor should there be any effects on your work.  In fact, 
>>this email is being sent to make you aware since you would likely 
>>otherwise never realize it.  Please share this information with others in 
>>your department as appropriate.
>>
>>Facilities has already begun the preparation work to the electrical and 
>>roofing systems.  The actual panels will be installed in March, depending 
>>on weather conditions.  The system will have a rated capacity of 2 
>>kilowatts.  The power produced will offset electricity that would 
>>otherwise have been purchased from NStar.  The electricity will be 
>>produced with NO greenhouse gas emissions or other negative environmental 
>>impacts.
>>
>>The project is being led by Laxmi Rao of the Department of Facilities 
>>(lrao at mit.edu).  More information on this project can be obtained at 
>>http://solarpower.mit.edu/. A photo of the installation on the Student 
>>Center, is at 
>>http://solarpower.mit.edu/images/installations/W20/highres/MIT_W20_finished_array.jpg
>>Our system will look similar.
>>
>>Interested in placing solar panels on your home?  Anyone in the MIT 
>>community is eligible for subsidized purchase of solar panels. Please see 
>>the web site for more information.
