A $3.7 million solar-energy system, one of the county's largest, has been completed at NRMCA Producer member New Holland Concrete. The ground-mounted system, featuring 4,480 solar panels on five acres, will supply about half of New Holland Concrete's electricity. The New Holland, PA-based company has a block-manufacturing plant, ready mixed concrete plant, a construction materials warehouse and store, a door-fabricating shop and offices at the property. The system is expected to produce 1.12 megawatts, enough electricity to power about 150 homes.
