Colorado fitness center works it out with solar power
Desh | Aug 11 2009

Calisthenics i.e. aerobics and yoga in communion is good for all. It becomes better if you can relate it to renewable power. Betting on it, the world’s first solar powered gym, dubbed Movement Climbing & Fitness, is ready to operate in Boulder, Colorado. It utilizes a 100KW photovoltaic system for its energy requirements. Moreover, a 90-sq-feet solar thermal system offers the water heating solution. Providing the green-fitness-freaks with a unique reason to smile, the Lighthouse Solar is assisting the gym-owner too with 10% reduction in energy costs. Jim Logan Architects have powered the high-tech center with a sustainable design utilizing energy-efficient lighting systems. Be it the cooling solutions or the digital display of power-consumption, it’s fully ingrained in clean power.
