Kadlec gets energy efficient with solar panels, wind turbines
RICHLAND -- The Tri-Cities' infamous "400 days of sunshine" now are helping power Kadlec Regional Medical Center with the recent installation of an array of solar panels on the Richland hospital's roof.
The solar panels, along with two miniature wind turbines, were part of a multi-million dollar energy efficiency project Apollo Solutions Group pitched to the hospital to help Kadlec save money on its energy bills.
Apollo secured $2 million in stimulus funding, along with $900,000 in cash incentives from the Bonneville Power Administration and Richland's city government, to do the project, which also involved changing out 6,000 lightbulbs and replacing Kadlec's aging boiler system with a more modern and efficient one, said Jason Rose, the hospital's director of plant operations.
