Red Wine - SolarFetzer Winery in California is spending somewhere in the neighborhood of $6-7 million on a solar array to power their wine bottling facility. The project will actually be funded through the MMA Renewable Ventures Fund which covers the costs of initial installation in exchange for a contract to sell the clean power to the businesses for a period of about 20 years. This will be the first project funded this way.
