Sun Gives Power To Earth Garden Mag’s Workplace

Earth Garden Magazine does not only use the sun to power up their workplace. The magazine can also save up any excess power which they could use during days when the sun decides not to shine. And this is done through their solar power system which comes with a 1500 watt grid. Nice one.
To have such a working solar power system, it took quite a number of people to install and connect everything. They had ten BP solar electric panels installed and some aluminum frames which mounted on the office’s roof. The connections were done later on and so now the solar system works just fine.
I did also find it interesting that the office could also quite keep up with how much power was the whole system generating, how much was the office using and just how much they are saving. Just imagine how much is the magazine now saving on electricity.
