Don Mealey Auto Group has announced the opening of its new Sport Subaru dealership in Orlando, featuring a 395-kW rooftop solar project by ESA. This solar array will serve as a pilot project for future electrification of other Don Mealey Group Auto Dealerships as part of a multi-dealership strategy centered on clean energy technology.
This location will see an average of 60% reduction in their annual electricity costs and is projected to have a return on its investment in about 6 years.
As more people switch to electric vehicles, there is a growing need for EV charging stations. Auto dealers can use solar energy to power these charging stations, making them more cost-effective and reducing their reliance on the grid. By installing solar panels and EV charging stations, auto dealers can create a more sustainable and convenient experience for their customers.
