Oakland will be honored for generating more of its energy from solar power than any other large city in Northern California, Mayor Ron Dellums said.

Homes, businesses and municipal buildings in the city can produce nearly 6 megawatts of energy from solar power devices, topping San Francisco and San Jose, each of which is able to produce 4 megawatts from solar sources.

Oakland will receive the City Solar Award for "most watts installed" from the Northern California Solar Energy Association at a reception at the Berkeley City Club.
