Broadway Stages in Brooklyn, New York, is giving Tinseltown a run for its money, as it makes a name for itself as the first solar-powered sound stage facility in the world. Awesome!
Broadway Stages has worked with top artists like Jay-Z, Beyonce, and Kings of Leon to produce their music, along with top films like, “The Good Shepherd” and “Duplicity,” and TV shows “The Good Wife” and “Third Watch.”
Tony Argento, owner of the film and television studio said, “The solar panel installation is our contribution to improve our neighborhood and help offset our carbon footprint.”
The facilities rooftop solar panels cut energy bills by more than $70,000 yearly, and create enough power to prevent the burning of 75,000 gallons of diesel fuel. The change has also created local work and jobs.
