MBC developed a 200KW solar power generating facility adjacent to a company-owned industrial building in the Bulls Head Section of Pottsville.
As of this writing the largest solar array in Schuylkill County, comprising 14 arrays on a 0.75-acre plot, the solar power system was placed into service in September 2010.
The system is capable of lighting the entire building. When power produced exceeds power required the electric meter actually runs backwards.
The Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs) made available by the installation were purchased by Dayton Power & Light, a publicly-owned electric power utility.
