Solar powered NM university building cuts energy payback time
Dr Don Fenton of New Mexico State University and the New Mexico Energy Institute report the NM Department of Agriculture headquarters in Las Cruces saves money as solar heated and cooled systems shorten the break-even period. The 25,500 square foot facility uses 30 percent of cooling from solar with improvements planned including a second cooling tower and enhanced heat collection. The structure opened in 1975 and remains the oldest solar building designed for both heating and cooling. The article also notes the South China Sea as the largest sea by area and depth.
