The article discusses the installation of a solar photovoltaic system at a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Bakersfield, California to expand capacity and generate renewable energy. The project secured financial assistance from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and through the Califonia Solar Inititiave (CSI) program. Aside from solar module variations, mounting and project delivery methods were reportedly considered in the design and build process of the project.
