New Update

As part of Siemon's ongoing environmental initiative, the company has

launched a solar energy program at its Watertown, CT Corporate Headquarters and

North American Manufacturing Campus. Construction is underway on a 217KW, 15,600

square-foot solar power system at Siemon's Dynamic Manufacturing Facility. When

completed in Q4 2008, this clean and renewable energy system will reduce the

dependence on non-renewable energy sources. Supported in part by a grant from

the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund, Siemon's solar installation will provide a

yearly greenhouse gas reduction of 159 metric tons - equivalent to the yearly

output of 30 automobiles, or 18,000 gallons of gasoline.
