In 2016 the company opened a 22 acre 5 megawatt solar facility that s shaped like mickey mouse.
Does disney use solar panels.
It s taken disney a while to build a large scale solar facility but the epcot area is no stranger to solar panels.
And true to disney form those solar panels will be arranged in the shape of a disney inspired design.
The farm is to the east of a busy state road 429 and near disney s wetlands and open lands although there are luxury.
The new solar farm joins the infamous mickey shaped 5mw solar park that disney installed next to its epcot center in 2016 and will provide up to 25 of the power used by disney world.
The 50 megawatt solar farm features 500 000 panels which is equal to about removing 10 000 cars from the road said renner.
Walt disney world resort recently embarked on a new initiative in collaboration with the reedy creek improvement district and solar project developer origis energy usa to bring a new 270 acre 50 megawatt solar facility online by the end of the year generating enough renewable clean energy to power two of its four theme parks in central florida.
Construction is expected to begin mid summer with service by the end of the year.
The solar facility will include 48 000 solar panels which is equal to around 1 000 typical residential solar rooftop systems.
In return the farm will provide solar power to walt disney world.
