A Food Bank That’s Green Thanks to generous gifts from Green Mountain Energy’s Sun Club, SolarSPARC programs and NRG, the Houston Food Bank is even more green with 440 solar panels on our roof. The panels convert Texas sunshine into power that lower our utility bills and save the equivalent of three meals per hour. The solar panel array covers 5,300 square feet on the Food Bank’s roof and generates 96,000 kilowatt hours annually. Interested in scheduling a tour?
