Signal Transformer has unveiled a solar energy project, wherein a high-tech rooftop solar system will be installed at its facility situated in Inwood, New York. The construction work for the 129 kilowatt or kW solar photovoltaic system has already commenced. Signal Transformer is a subsidiary of Bel Fuse (News - Alert) Inc.


The rooftop solar energy system aims to address most of the yearly electricity requirements of Signal Transformer. The eco-friendly renewable energy generated by the system will compensate for more than 200,000 pounds of carbon generated every year.

In a statement, Sandy Axelrad, general manager at Signal Transformer, said, "We are excited to announce the planned conversion of our Signal Transformer facility to solar power. The decision to 'go solar' is a fine example of Bel's broad commitment to environmental sustainability."

Apart from the solar project at Solar, Bel has been utilizing unconventional, eco-friendly manufacturing methods and materials as part of its green programs. Also, Bel’s products do not comprise of lead and other prohibited materials.

Signal has also entered into a strategic collaboration with EnterSolar, a major provider of marketable solar offerings based in New York. Paul Ahern, president of EnterSolar, said, "EnterSolar is excited to be partnering with Bel on this significant project, and we applaud them for their continued efforts to improve Bel's environmental footprint. In addition to the sustainability benefits, Signal Transformer will enjoy significant savings on their ongoing electricity costs."

Signal Transformer aims to finish the solar project by August 2013. The organization is receiving support from Governor Cuomo's NY-Sun Initiative for this project. NY-Sun Initiative is a dynamic public-private joint venture that is rapidly extending the implementation of solar photovoltaic systems across the Empire State.

Signal Transformer is a major manufacturer of transformers, chokes, and inductors, along with custom-designed and made-to-order products. The components from Signal are utilized in a wide array of extremely vital applications globally.

Products utilized in networking, telecommunications, high-speed data transmission, commercial aerospace, military, transportation and consumer electronics are devised, built and marketed by Bel and its subsidiaries. EnterSolar brings together solar development proficiency and economic structuring capabilities to offer optimal solar solutions with realistic, long-term ROI especially for commercial enterprises.
