FW: Verizon Launches Green Energy Project to Power 19 Company Facilities Across the Country

NEW YORK – Verizon announced today that it will invest $100 million in a solar and fuel-cell energy project that will help power 19 of its facilities in seven states across the country.  When completed next year, the project will enable Verizon to annually generate more than 70 million kilowatt hours of its own green energy -- enough to power more than 6,000 single-family homes a year -- while eliminating more than 10,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide -- enough to offset the annual CO2 emissions from more than 1 million gallons of gas. http://newscenter.verizon.com/corporate/news-articles/2013/04-30-green-energy-project/
