Bombardier's 3,000 solar panels on the roof of its London Biggin Hill Service Centre are expected to generate more than 1.133 million kWh, lowering carbon emissions by up to 252 tons.

Bombardier completed the installation of more than 3,000 solar panels on the roof of its London Biggin Hill Service Centre in a move that the Canadian aircraft manufacturer said will provide for up to 32% of the facility’s energy. Installed in collaboration with Zestec Renewable Energy, the photovoltaic solar panel system is expected to generate more than 1.133 million kWh while lowering the facility's carbon emissions by up to 252 tons.

The nearly 250,000-sq-ft service center is equipped to provide scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, modifications, and avionics installations on Bombardier Learjets, Challengers, and Globals.
