CY Cypress Semiconductor Corporation

The CEOs of Cypress Semiconductor Corp., SunPower Corp. and Second Harvest Food Bank along with San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed will dedicate a new 322-KW SunPower solar power system at the Second Harvest Food Bank’s headquarters at 750 Curtner Ave. in San Jose. The event will take place at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, October 1. The solar system is largely funded by $1.1 million in combined donations from the two San Jose companies. The cost savings from the solar-electric system will save the food bank enough money to purchase 315 more pounds of food per day — the equivalent of 630 meals per day, or six million meals over the next 25 years.
