206a. Red Deer College – Largest solar system on a college in Canada

Red Deer, Alberta is now home to the large solar system on a college in Canada. Red Deer College started with a modest goal of generating 20% of their own electricity and now has a 1.6-megawatt solar system, an alternative energy lab and when combined with their new 1-megawatt cogeneration system generates 66% of their own electricity right on campus. This week on CKUA Radio's Green Energy Futures we talk to Dean of Trades and Technologies Joel Gingrich.
