Atlantic Health Training Center Goes Solar

Green jerseys, green energy.

Jets have now installed more than 3,000 solar panels from manufacturer Yingli Solar at their practice facility in Florham Park, N.J.

The 120,000-square-foot training facility will now run off 750,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per year.

The Jets boast it's the largest photovoltaic system currently installed at any National Football League team headquarters.

"This project is the first of many green initiatives on behalf of the team, and we are proud to be green in color and also in deed," Thad Sheely, the New York Jets executive vice president of finance and stadium development, said in a statement.

Going solar, y'all.

So basically

this tells me that for the next few days, there won’t be a lot of Jets news, and we should just find something else to do during the bye. I hate the bye week. I heard they were going paint the cafeteria after the solar panels were installed. Is this true?

wow

I didn’t attack the person. I like your writing style, but solar panels?

Understood, but it's the Jets' practice facility, which makes it Jets' news.

Plus, it was short. Took up what, 1/40th of the front page?

If it’s Jet-related news, we’re going to report it.

To be honest

This along with a you tube video was in a flight connection a few weeks ago,

The stop the presses was just on observation, of how the technology goes away, but the terminology remains. Like the term dial ‘em up, yet rotary phones haven’t been seen for 20 years.

The takeaway from all of this is appreciate what you do, and clearly, I’m reading.
