Delaware Transit Corporation
The Delaware Transit Corporation received a $2.5 million federal grant to install solar panels at a bus parking facility in Dover. The project included a canopy system, which helps protect the fleets during extreme weather year-round. In addition, the canopy consisting of 63,000 square feet of solar panels provides power to the facility and the six electric buses stationed there. This project provides up to 900 KWh of energy, generating its own clean power to reduce operating costs and help meet the state’s sustainability goals.
