Vortex Cold Storage in Albert Lea on Friday held a ribbon cutting to celebrate the installation of solar panels on the company’s roof to increase the company’s sustainability and efficiency. 

About 30 to 40 people attended the event. 

The solar panels will produce 1.8 megawatts, enough to power approximately 300 homes, said a project developer from Cedar Creek Energy.
