Constellation To Install Toys R Us Rooftop Solar

BALTIMORE (AP) -- Toys R Us says Constellation Energy will build and operate North America's largest rooftop solar power installation on top of a New Jersey distribution center.

The toy retailer announced Wednesday that Baltimore-based Constellation will install the system at a distribution center in Flanders, N.J.

The company says the system will provide an estimated 72 percent of the electrical needs of the center. That amount is equal to the electricity used to power 532 homes.
