Frank L. Weyenberg Library Unveils New Solar System

GMToday.com · last updated

MEQUON — To celebrate the completion of its solar panel project, Mequon’s Frank L. Weyenberg Library, located at 11345 N. Cedarburg Road, will have a drone flight at 4 p.m. Tuesday.

The new 98.8635 kW rooftop solar panel system was designed to optimize energy efficiency and reduce energy costs following the replacement of all fluorescent lighting with LED, replacing inefficient boilers with high-efficiency models, and reframing windows throughout the building, according to the city.

Frank L. Weyenberg Library Board of Trustees President Tedd Lookatch noted that the one-time expenditure has a return on investment of just 7.1 years, and over twenty years, it will have the same impact of reducing 1,813 tons of CO2, the equivalent of the emissions produced by cars driving 4,122,282 miles.
