Sunfinity solar array powers Texas highway repairs

“We’ve been very pleased with the performance of our initial solar system at our LBJ facility in North Dallas, and it makes sense to extend those same environmental and financial benefits to our Tarrant County operations,” said David Serrano, COO of North Tarrant Express.

The installation is expected to supply almost 50% of the highway operation company’s maintenance center’s electricity needs. The facility typically runs all day, as the central hub for all crews in charge of ongoing operations, maintenance and repairs of the North Tarrant Express corridors with 13.3 miles of lanes on I-820 and SH-121/183 and another 10.1 miles of NTE 35W TEXpress Lanes on I-35W.

“Solar is a great fit for a wide range of businesses and non-profits, from retail to manufacturing to educational,” said John Billingsley, Chairman and CEO of Sunfinity. “With the extension of the federal tax credit for going solar at 26%, now is the time to see how much solar can save your operations.”
