Derry Solar is a ground-mounted solar project located on a closed and capped municipal solid waste landfill owned by the Town of Derry. Once complete, the solar project will help meet the Town Council’s goal for 100% renewable energy for the Town of Derry. Compared with existing private and municipal solar installations currently operating in New Hampshire, this array is expected to be among the largest solar installations in the Granite State.
