Kaiser Permanente plans to add on-site solar energy to as many as 170 of its California healthcare facilities, according to an article on the Health Facilities Management website.
Kaiser has made a commitment to purchase more renewable energy, reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 30 percent by 2017 compared with its 2008 emission levels.
The system expects the annual output of greenhouse gas emissions to decrease from 806,000 to 617,000 metric tons by 2017.
Kaiser expects to save between $5 million and $15 million over the course of long-term renewable energy purchase agreements.
