The Hunt’s Headquarter is located in a 30,000 sq/ft building. In 2012 we installed solar panel arrays which cover the roof of the building. Since the system went live Hunts has generated 220,535 kWH of solar energy. This is the equivalent to the impact of 185 Tons of CO2 saved or 21,341 gallons of gas saved or 4,742 trees Planted
