The sun rises this morning behind several SolarBee units floating in Grand Lake along West Bank Road. The SolarBees - powered by batteries charged by the sun - aerate and circulate water in hopes of reducing algae formation and algae toxins. Each of the six units installed in the lake cost $51,900; the company is footing the bill.
