CleanChoice Energy, a leading clean energy company, has implemented the first step in its mission to develop and own a portfolio ofsolar power generation facilities by acquiring a solar project in Franklin County, Mercersburg, Pennsylvania. The project has a planned installed capacity of 25.15 MWdc and is CleanChoice’s first acquisition in line with its long-term ownership strategy.
Project Details and Renewable Capacity
Located on 168 acres in Franklin County, this solar project will contribute renewable energy to the PJM power grid via FirstEnergy.
