Solar furniture has become an increasingly popular way to power furniture. These innovative devices use a system of integrated solar panels to charge a built-in battery. These systems can also be customized to fit the needs of each individual customer, including WiFi connectivity, in built screens, and more. The technology is particularly suitable for public spaces, such as parks, bus stops, and shopping areas. The company is currently conducting three-month-long trials to allow customers to test the furniture before they buy it.

The company has announced a multi-phased effort to reduce its energy footprint. As the world’s largest furniture manufacturer, Ashley is committed to reducing its carbon footprint. Its manufacturing facilities consume more than 100 million kWh each year. The company plans to offset 35% their electrical needs with sunlight in phase one of its solar energy project. The company anticipates that the project will be completed by 2016. The first phase of the initiative will cost approximately $29 million.

Vanguard Furniture’s children furniture collection will also be powered by the solar electric system. To complete the project, the company has teamed up with Pisgah Energy and Eagle Solar & Light. The 469 metric tons of carbon dioxide that the solar electric systems will offset each year will be equivalent to the annual energy consumption of 57 homes or the equivalent of driving a 2021 Tesla Model 3 coast-to-coast ten times.

Vanguard Furniture is already a green brand after installing solar energy panels. In fact, the company is collaborating with the non-profit group Pisgah Energy and the energy company Eagle Solar & Light to develop this project. Vanguard Furniture will offset 469 metric tons annually of carbon dioxide with the system in place. This is equivalent to the energy consumption of 57 homes, or the cost of driving a 2021 Tesla Model 3 coast-to-coast ten times.

Ashley’s solar energy project will enhance its existing advanced manufacturing facilities. The panels will charge battery-powered industrial vehicles, IoT systems, and automation in the factory. The company’s Arcadia, Wisconsin, facility will benefit from its new solar energy initiative. The company plans to complete the project by 2020. The result is a truly impressive feat. The furniture company is a leader in the global solar industry. Its solar power projects will help it achieve the goals of its customers, and reduce our planet’s energy consumption.

Ashley is one example of a company that has installed solar panels in its warehouses. The company’s headquarters can be powered by its solar panels for 16 million kilowatt hours of electricity each year. A solar array installed on your furniture will save the environment and reduce your electricity bills. The installation of solar panels will also help save money and increase profits. During the last three years, the project generated more than $600 million in clean energy for the furniture industry.
