SOLAR ENERGY
El Paso school districts are enrolling in El Paso Electric's Texas Business Solar Power program to cut electricity costs without installing solar panels, with Ysleta Independent School District subscribing for 15 accounts and Socorro Independent School District for 12. Both districts anticipate annual savings of $400,000 to $500,000, drawing energy from the Felina solar farm, although actual savings may vary. The districts are considering expanding their participation based on the program's effectiveness.
