Syncarpha capitalBelfast Solar I’s community solar project has been approved to operate since earlier this month.
Located adjacent to Belfast Municipal Airport, the project supplies energy directly to Central Maine Power (CMP), which benefits CMP customers through the state’s Net Energy Billing Program.
The project covers 13 hectares and consists of three fixed tilting, ground-mounted arrays with a total capacity of 4.6 MW.
The company says Belfast Solar I is designed to avoid wetlands and comply with Maine’s Stormwater Management Chapter 500. It marks Syncarpha’s sixth operational community solar project in Maine, expanding the company’s statewide capacity to 35.4 MW.
“The completion of this project is an important milestone in expanding our solar carbon footprint in Maine and across the country,” said Cliff Chapman, CEO of Syncarpha Capital.
“It is an example of Syncarpha’s commitment to bringing clean, affordable energy to communities by breaking down barriers to widespread solar adoption.”
