Glastonbury Whole Foods to run on fuel cell technology
The new Whole Foods Market in Glastonbury, set to open on Wednesday, will be the first supermarket to generate most of its power on-site with a fuel cell from UTC Power, a United Technologies company.
The fuel cell will generate 50 percent of the store's electricity and heat and nearly 100 percent of its hot water. This allows Whole Foods Market to reduce its burden on the power grid and its impact on the environment.
The store's fuel cell is eligible for an Onsite Renewable Energy grant from the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund, which promotes, develops and invests in clean energy sources for sustainable energy for the benefit of Connecticut ratepayers.
