Cargill is reaping immediate benefits from a new solar-energy system installed at the company's Fresno, Calif., beef-processing plant, the company reported. Cargill partnered with Altamonte, Fla.-based TEVA Energy LLC to install the system.
TEVA, Cargill and the California Solar Initiative program are monitoring the system's performance in real time through remote metering and on-site monitoring equipment. The system will pre-heats water used throughout the plant for food-safety and sanitation
