Pacific Gas & Electric Co. unveiled the nation's first solar-powered billboard, at 1000 Brannan St. in San Francisco.
The billboard, visible from the 9th St. exit off Highway 101, is outfitted with 20 solar modules that provide up to 3.4 kilowatts of renewable solar energy to the grid of San Francisco-based PG&E.
That exceeds the power used at night to illuminate the billboard's lights.
PG&E also replaced the billboard's halophane light fixtures with energy-efficient LED lights, the company said.
The solar panels were provided by SunTech Power, PG&E said.
