Advisory for Monday, Dec. 1:

Southern California Edison and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to Announce Completion of State’s Largest Commercial Rooftop Solar Installation

(Note to Editors: Event time has changed to 9 a.m. PST.)

--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Southern California Edison:

WHAT:

  Southern California Edison (SCE) and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will announce that the state’s largest photovoltaic solar roof is now powering a region of Southern California. It’s the first of the utility’s approximately 150 proposed solar photovoltaic installations on Southern California commercial rooftops.
 

WHEN:

9 a.m., Dec. 1.
 

WHERE:

The ProLogis distribution warehouse, 13230 San Bernardino Ave., Fontana, Calif.
 

WHO:

-- California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.
-- Ted Craver, Edison International chairman and chief executive officer.
-- Al Fohrer, Southern California Edison chairman and chief executive officer.

-- John Carrington, First Solar executive vice president, global marketing and business development.

 

VISUALS:

Journalists will be able to go up to the rooftop to photograph the solar panels. SCE also will provide still photos and b-roll showing the process used to install 33,700 photovoltaic solar panels.
 

BACKGROUND:

In March, SCE announced its plan, subject to regulatory approval, to cover two square miles of commercial roofs with advanced solar panels. Altogether, that would provide 250 million watts of peak renewable generating capacity, equivalent to building a solar power plant.
The governor in 2006 signed into law the Million Dollar Roofs Plan to implement his goal providing 3,000 megawatts of additional clean energy and reduce the output of greenhouse gasses by 3 million tons, which is the equivalent of taking 1 million cars off the road.
 

PARKING:

Parking is available in the warehouse’s parking lot.
