Walker Products Goes Solar at Missouri Plants

The company says it expects that the solar panels installed at three locations will provide a minimum of 60 percent of the energy needs for these plants.

PACIFIC, Mo. — Walker Products Inc. of Garden Grove, Calif., announced it has installed solar energy panels at its three manufacturing and distribution facilities in Pacific, Mo.  
 
The company says it expects that the solar panels will provide a minimum of 60 percent of the energy needs for the three plants. This installation is the very first solar project to utilize a 335 watt “Lifeline Solar” monocrystalline solar panel in the state of Missouri, according to Walker.
 
This environmental consciousness is consistent with Walker’s product line strategy, the company says.  Walker is a global leader in the category of oxygen sensors, which determine the oxygen content of exhaust gas and monitor air/fuel mixture to maximize fuel economy and minimize emissions.
