CHANDLER, Ariz. (AP) — Intel Corp. plans to install rooftop solar panels at its Chandler complexes as part of a companywide solar power initiative.

The company says photovoltaic panels will be installed on office buildings at its manufacturing complex and its research campus in Chandler.

Intel’s director of global utilities, Marty Sedler, says the panels will supply only a few percentage points of the building’s total electrical use, but that Intel hopes to expand the effort in the future.

Sedler says the work at the Chandler locations is expected to begin in a few weeks and the installations should be completed in April.

Intel says it plans to install a total of 2.5 megawatts of solar generating capacity at eight locations in Arizona, California, New Mexico and Oregon during the next seven months.
