Shaw Centre
720nm Infrared
This is the glass roof on the convention center. A few years ago the city hired a company to replace the glass, solar panels were incorporated.
The photovoltaic array will produce 230,000-kilowatt hours of power per year or 3% of the power the building uses.
A few words from the Pomes for a Small Park: "Gift of a River" are displayed it the photovoltaic panels - they are in Morse Code.
“Beginnings just appear so like a drowsy eye
Suddenly awake where a river wells up
Uncoiling from the ice where snug beside the land
It lay dreaming at our feet in quiet sleep.”
