The first solar array to power a zoo exhibit in Texas will be switched on in  
Houston on April 22.  
The _Houston Zoo_ 
(http://www.bizjournals.com/houston/gen/Houston_Zoo_5C536DC5A4414A4E9B70F9B32E566625.html)  and _Green Mountain Energy Co._ 
(http://www.bizjournals.com/houston/gen/Green_Mountain%20Energy%20Co_1C5C8F61DF384561A597CD5
F3510A4EA.html)  have installed the  $64,000 solar power system at the zoo's 
African lion exhibit.  
To celebrate Earth Day, children from Rosehill Christian School will flip an  
honorary electric switch to mark the change to the new power source.  
Zoo officials estimate the solar array will produce 8,188 kilowatts of  
electricity a year and will prevent 15,639 pounds of carbon dioxide from  entering 
the atmosphere.
