To know more about it, Jerry McNerney, Congressman joined one of the Safeway officials and took a trip of solar array roof top. The 55,000 square foot store is being energized by solar panels.
Interestingly, wind energy is being used for powering up the gas station. Along with solar and wind energy, Safeway has made significant investments in other energy saving projects. For instance, it is also taking appropriate measures to minimize the demand of carbon power.
