SINGAPORE: Micron Technology, one of the world’s biggest memory chipmakers, is in the process of installing 36,000 solar panels on the rooftops of its fabrication plants and on its carport shelter tops here, and using the renewable power produced to lower its carbon footprint.
When all the panels are installed by 2024, the project will produce electricity that is able to power 6,000 homes, said Chen Kok Sing, the US company’s vice-president and Singapore country manager.
