Plantronics Celebrates National SolarDay
today announced that its headquartered office has the largest solar and sun tube installation in the Santa Cruz County, to date.
This new solar installment will save approximately 575,000 kilowatt hours of energy on an annual basis. To celebrate National SolarDay and the achievement of this major energy milestone, the company invites guests and media to tour the eco-friendly facility in the coming weeks and ask questions about Plantronics energy-saving initiatives. The Plantronics Santa Cruz facility has more than 500 employees and continues to invest in environmental friendly initiatives such as installing over 340 solar tubes throughout the office cubicles to collect and redirect sun light and provide more natural light in the office, therefore reducing the power consumption throughout the building. This solar system was fully implemented in late May and is expected to offset upwards of 80 percent of its utility bill. 'On the heels of our 50th company anniversary, we are thrilled to celebrate National SolarDay this year and share the details of our solar system initiative,' said Dolores Nelson, Director of Facilities for Plantronics. 'With the backing of U.S. Congresswoman Doris Matsuai and California Senator Dianne Feinstein, SolarDay 2011 is a day meant to educate the public on the benefits of solar energy and cost savings.
