Operational since October 2016, this 10.66 MW solar installation in Egg Harbor, NJ was developed on a 46-acre declassified Superfund site that had been remediated and capped.
Sensitive environmental and regulatory requirements related to development on the former landfill necessitated extensive permitting and the navigation of complex restrictions during construction.
The facility supplies power to the PJM wholesale market.
