Sonoco Invests In New Solar Energy System By Novitium Energy Voorhees Township, New Jersey based Novitium Energy announced the launch of a new solar energy system at Sonoco’s plant in Dayton, New Jersey. The new system purchased by Sonoco will produce approximately 1.295 million kilowatt hours of electricity annually and meet 58 percent of the facility's energy needs. Over the 25-year lifespan of the system, the kilowatt hours avoided via solar energy produced at Sonoco is estimated to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions equal to 10,235.6 metric tons of Carbon Dioxide. Novitium En- ergy says this is equal to 1,151,738 gallons of gasoline, 11,324,652 pounds of coal burned, and carbon seques- tered by 169,245 trees grown from seedlings for 10 years. "Both of our organizations feel a deep sense of respon- sibility to serve our local communities, where many of our employees work and live, by leading the way with renew- able technologies to meet the increasing demands of our environment,” Novitium Energy CEO Jeremy Conner said. Elizabeth Rhue, VP Global Environmental, Sustainabil- ity, and Centralized Technology, Sonoco, said: "We're ex- cited to celebrate the first of many planned investments in solar power across our network globally. "This will bring Sonoco one step closer to meeting our emissions reduction goals."
