Delaware Offices, a Wilmington -based developer of unique commercial properties, is completing two green initiatives to start 2009. At their property at Ninth & Tatnall, the company recently installed a 26.5 kilowatt solar power system and at 4th Street and Greenhill Avenue they are completing Wilmington’s first environmentally-friendly car wash.
The company’s downtown location provides solar power to a commercial office building and eliminates 33.1 tons of carbon production annually. This is the equivalent of planting 45 new trees each year or eliminating the car pollution from driving 73,000 miles. Delaware Offices worked with CMI Electric and SolarDock, two leading Delaware-area providers of solar solutions, to complete these projects.
At the company’s Greenhill Car Wash, Delaware Offices is installing a comparable solar system and a water recycling system. In addition to this environmentally-friendly equipment, the Greenhill Car Wash uses eco-friendly chemicals. Car washes are a green alternative to washing your car at home as they use less water and limit the chemicals that enter the city’s sewer system.
Delaware Offices, established in 1998, creates unique commercial properties to meet the needs of the area’s business, government and non-profit organizations.
