Shaded Parking and Solar Power at the Cajundome

The Cajundome will soon have some solar power AND shaded parking thanks to a Solar Power project that a group of students and teachers from the Louisiana Technical College are working on as part of a national sustainability competition. In an effort to help make Acadiana more energy efficient, they will be building a wind turbine in Washington and adding solar panels to the Cajundome, which will be mounted on poles instead of on the roof so they can serve the dual purpose of also providing shaded parking. KATC has the full report.
