Natural Bridges National Monument constructed a 112.6-kW PV system to supply electricity for the small community of NPS personnel, their families, and the visiting public. Natural Bridges’ moderate, sunny climate, remote location away from commercial power sources, and the PV system’s accessibility to the public make the visitor center an ideal location.
