GKH Re-Energized
Gibbel Kraybill & Hess is happy to announce a few additions to our offices at 2933 Lititz Pike! In 2022, we teamed up with Paradise Energy Solutions to install solar panels on the entire office roof and add two electric vehicle charging units in our client parking lot.
The office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) says this about solar energy:
“ As a renewable source of power, solar energy has an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change, which is critical to protecting humans, wildlife, and ecosystems. Solar energy can also improve air quality and reduce water use from energy production.”
We continuously look for ways to lessen our impact on the environment. Solar panels are a sustainable energy option that, once installed, do not use any fossil fuels or give off any emissions while producing useful electricity. Paradise installed 119 solar panels on our roof which will produce 58,383 kWh of electricity each year offsetting 45% of the electricity used in this location. These solar panels will keep 45.4 tons of CO2 out of the air and save approximately 1000 trees each year!
The EV charging units in our client parking lot will be available to all GKH clients and employees during business hours. Even better? That EV charge will be free of charge!
Our mission is to empower individuals, nurture community, and promote justice with integrity and compassion. Protecting our environment is a crucial component of that mission, and we look forward to continually adapting our facilities and practices to best serve these needs.
