Black Stallion Estate completes solar installation
Delcato Family Vineyards installs 1,000 solar panels at Black Stallion Estate Winery
Delicato Family Vineyards, Manteca, Calif., announced the completion of the installation of a solar electric energy system at its flagship winery in Napa Valley. The 347.93 kW PV system includes more than 1,000 panels that were installed on building roofs at Black Stallion Estate Winery by Sunworks.
The system reduces carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 377 metric tons a year, which is equal to taking 79.6 passenger vehicles off the road, reducing 902,773 miles driven by an average passenger vehicle or planting 357 acres of forests, the company says, citing the Environmental Protection Agency’s greenhouse gas equivalencies calculator.
