Proud to say Annapolis MD hosts one of the largest solar farms in the USA.
Type: Multiple Community-Scale, Brownfield (Closed Landfill) – 50,000 solar panels, 12 Megawatt (MW) power generation total, 70 acres of land
The City earns $15,000/year per MW of power capacity (except for the portion purchased by the City) plus $10,000/year for the lease of the land to the solar developer. The City has a 20-year contract agreement with the developer; everything escalates by 2% per year based on the federal energy price inflation index.
Overall the City estimates cost savings of $250,000 per year for the 20 years of the contract, plus 2% inflation per year.
