TORONTO—Ontario-based SolarBank Corporation has announced it intends to develop a 6.41-megawatt DC ground-mount solar power project known as the East Bloomfield project on a site located in East Bloomfield, N.Y.
The project is expected to be eligible for incentives under the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority NY-Sun Program, stated a release.
The company has secured a lease for the project site, received interconnection approval for the project, and has received a special use permit for the project from the Town of East Bloomfield. Solarbank will continue to work to complete the permitting process and secure the necessary financing for construction.
Once completed, it will be operated as a community solar project, with access to the local electricity grid. By subscribing to a project, a homeowner earns credits on their electric bill every month from their portion of the solar that’s generated, accessing the benefits without installing panels on their home.
