Coming this fall, Menasha School District will be home to the state’s second net-zero school. In planning, the district mapped out a facility that completely eliminates reliance on oil and gas, and instead utilizes geothermal heating systems, heat pumps, and a 1.15 MW solar array consisting of over 2,700 panels. The new clean energy system is projected to save $140,000 annually and slash carbon dioxide emissions by 803 metric tons each year.
