South Windsor production facility Connecticut studios has agreed to buy fuel cells from ClearEdge Power for its $25 million energy park.
The installation of the 4.98 megawatt fuel cell park using 12 ClearEdge fuel cells is key to the financing of the moviemaking studio, as the renewable energy credits earned by generated power using clean technology will help pay for the construction.
The fuel cells from ClearEdge, which also is based in South Windsor, will generate enough low-emissions energy equivalent of taking 622 cars off the road and planting 351 acres of trees.
The first phase The Connecticut Studios project include four movie studios, a hotel, and a mill factory used for making movie sets. The second phase could include two more movie studios and a television studio.
