Manchester, NH April 16, 2009 - Hitachi Cable Manchester (HCM) continues to be a leader in green initiatives. HCM has initiated a feasibility study to determine the cost and capabilities of a roof-mounted solar array for its 300,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Manchester, NH.
Working with its contractor, HCM will explore the size and electricity generating capacity of a roof-mounted system. With more than five football fields of rooftop space to work with, HCM is energized by the possibilities of producing a large share of the electricity it uses. Mike Gallant, Vice President, said, "We've started down this path not just because HCM believes in renewable energy, but because as a leader in our industry, we believe it is important to set an example. We hope that other companies will consider using solar as well."
