Fletcher, N.C. — The Winning Team, a North Carolina-based Arby's franchisee, will switch its 33 restaurants from conventional natural-gas hot water heaters to solar-powered ones. Thanks to Appalachian Energy's model, the switch will require no upfront capital cost.
 
A total of 132 solar panels will produce hot water for the restaurants, even on cloudy days, according to a news release. Appalachian Energy's engineers monitor the system online from their North Carolina headquarters.
 
By going solar, The Winning Team will cut its bill for natural gas by approximately $12,000 annually and reduce greenhouse gases by around 100,000 pounds.
