Wednesday 10, March 2021
Installed capacity of 130-megawatts
Project overview
The Alabama Solar Park will be located in northwestern Genesee County, New York with a focus in the Town of Alabama and adjacent properties in surrounding towns. Land agreements totaling 3,500 acres have been signed. Alabama Solar's generation will be equivalent to the consumption of more than 40,000 New York homes. The solar park will also complement the area’s agricultural resources, providing farmers with a stable, drought-resistant cash crop in the form of landowner lease payments.
Economic benefits
Alabama Solar Park yields significantly in the form of payments to landowners, local spending, and annual community investment. Alabama Solar Park is also compatible with other land uses and provides a stable form of income to local landowners.
