A former New Haven landfill will soon transform into a solar farm that can power hundreds of homes | AI News Digest
A former landfill in New Haven is set to be transformed into a solar farm featuring over 1,900 solar panels. This project will provide enough electricity to power 200 homes for a year and is part of New Haven's initiative to adopt environmentally-friendly practices. Mayor Justin Elicker emphasized the importance of reducing the city's carbon footprint despite federal setbacks in green energy support. The solar farm, developed by Greenskies Clean Energy, will be the first of its kind in New Haven and is expected to generate significant renewable energy. The city will receive $72,000 annually from Greenskies for leasing the land, further contributing to local sustainability efforts.
