ESA Renewables Opens 1.3M kWh Solar Array in Blairsville, Georgia

02/02/2011
ESA Renewables has selected Blairsville, Georgia, for the site of the state's biggest ground-mounted solar photovoltaic system. The array will produce 1.3 million kilowatt hours of power each year, which will be sold back to the Tennessee Valley Authority.

"This major milestone project is a significant step forward for the development of the clean energy industry in Georgia. Solar has gained momentum in the U.S. and we believe our global expertise and resources in providing turnkey PV projects add exceptional value. Meanwhile we are supporting various sectors of the solar industry while creating new job opportunities for the local economy," said Jeffrey Burkett, president of ESA Renewables.

Green Power Switch subscribers will be able to utilize the power the project generates. These users include homeowners and businesses.
