Bonneville Environmental Foundation granted Encore Ceramics a loan to cover the costs of equipment and installation for a 29 kW PV system, the sixth-largest PV system in the Northwest at the time. Encore Ceramics wanted to make a start toward energy self-sufficiency for their company. Currently, the system produces approximately 4 percent of their electrical use. The company hopes to install a bigger PV system on their newest building which was specifically designed to support a 140 kW PV system.
