SAS, Solar Farms and Sheep: Working Together for the Good of the Planet
A few weeks ago, our team moved into SAS’ newest building, Building A. It’s a beauty, featuring a world-class training center, a bakery, and over 1000 pieces of artwork. While the abundance of baked goods is hard to beat, I think my favorite part about the building is the view.
Using deep learning to forecast solar energy
Did you know that SAS has two on-site solar farms? At a combined 2.3 MW in capacity, SAS’ solar farms are located on 12 acres at world headquarters in Cary, NC. The photovoltaic (PV) solar arrays generate 3.8 million kilowatt-hours of clean, renewable energy each year, reducing carbon dioxide emissions
