Bliffert Lumber & Hardware’s Riverwest location is committed to reducing its carbon footprint. In March, the first full month of solar energy production, they exceeded expectations with a calculated environmental benefit of 9,606.11lb CO2 emission saved or the equivalent 72.58 trees planted.
January saw the installation of the Arch Solar-designed solar solution for the Wisconsin climate for Bliffert’s Riverwest location. The solar array will offset 54.67% of Bliffert's electrical consumption with an estimated annual savings of $10,329 / 63,648 kWh produced by solar annually.
“Anyone in construction knows that reducing the environmental impact of the industry is a heavy burden to shoulder. Bliffert’s commitment to reduce their carbon footprint and set an example for the community has been a motivating journey,” said Andrew Holmstrom of Arch Solar.
