Coronal Energy Invests in Florence, South Carolina, Solar Farm
08/13/2018
According to state officials, the Rankin Solar Center will generate 10 megawatts of clean, renewable solar power, which is enough to power approximately 2,000 homes annually. With world-class capabilities in development, financing, engineering and construction, Coronal Energy owns, operates and manages a 333-megawatt portfolio with a multi-gigawatt development pipeline. Located off Corrie Farm Road in Florence, Coronal Energy’s new development is expected to come online in the fourth quarter of 2019.
“The Rankin Solar Center is a special one for Coronal Energy. It marks Coronal’s first solar project in South Carolina and represents the culmination of a partnership with Florence County that began in 2014. We are incredibly proud of our association with Florence County and our shared participation in leading South Carolina’s energy toward a bright, new future together,” said Coronal Energy Vice President of Development Russ Edwards.
“Our approach to creating a business-friendly environment for all types of companies continues to pay off, and Coronal Energy’s new investment in Florence County is a testament to that. I look forward to seeing the impact that the renewable energy industry will have in the region and across the state,” said Governor Henry McMaster.
“Clean energy is an important initiative for a healthy environment. Coronal Energy will not only bring investment to Florence County, but also help create sustainable energy for the future,” Florence County Council Chairman Kent Caudle said.
“An important part of economic development is planning for the future. Being environmentally-conscious plays a crucial role in securing an economically-sound future for Florence County. Solar farm developments like Coronal Energy will help us build a better community,” Florence County Economic Development Partnership Chairman Frank J. “Buddy” Brand explained.
