Project Details:
December 2020
Morrisville, VT
2.8MW
Encore is initiating construction activities on the second project to be advanced under the partnership between Encore Renewable Energy and the Vermont Public Power Supply Authority (“VPPSA”), which was formed to pursue the development, financing and construction of approximately 10 MW of solar capacity on behalf of VPPSA’s municipal utility members. The 2.8MW project is located in a commercial district of Morrisville, Vermont, and will feature pollinator plantings when complete to offer a lower maintenance ground cover while also providing critical habitat for the dwindling number of native pollinators which are critical for our future food supply needs.
The project is sited on a former corn silage site and will generate revenue in the form of lease income for the landowner to allow her to maintain ownership of the property that has been in her family for decades through the duration of the 25-year lease agreement.
Construction for this project began in June 2020 and the project was commissioned in December 2020.
