Port of Los Angeles Completes One Megawatt Solar Project on Rooftop of World Cruise Center

The Port of Los Angeles has completed its 1 megawatt solar rooftop project atop the 71,500 square foot World Cruise Center.  The system will be capable of generating approximately 1.2 million kilowatt hours of electricity annually to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) energy grid. The system is projected to result in an annual $200,000 energy cost savings, and is the first phase of a multi-location solar power program that eventually could produce 10 megawatts of solar system generation capacity. The $10.8 million project includes a total of 1.16 million square feet of rooftop solar panels.
