John Pearce on 23 Oct 13"A DANDENONG South steel manufacturer's rooftop is attracting international attention. Hilton Manufacturing recently switched on the largest array of sun-tracking solar panels on a factory roof in the southern hemisphere. This month the site will host delegations from Taiwan and India, keen to learn more about the technology. Project manager Jacques Esper said the business would draw about 25 per cent of its power from the 340 solar panels arranged on top of the 15,000sq m factory, which had become a showpiece."
