Telegram.com - A product of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette: "Worcester will soon be keeping its drinking water clean and treating its wastewater with power from the sun, with the installation of new solar electricity arrays being paid for with federal stimulus funds.
The projects, to get under way during the summer, are expected to provide a permanent reduction in the high electricity costs at the Worcester water filtration plant in Holden that serves the city and several nearby communities and at the Upper Blackstone regional sewage treatment plant in Millbury.
Gov. Deval L. Patrick said yesterday that $20 million in federal anti-recession funding will be used to put large solar installations at a dozen water and sewer plants around the state, including the Worcester facilities and the MWRA Carroll Water Treatment Plant in Marlboro."
