Location of Project | Gastonia, North Carolina, USA |
Project Complete Year | 2020 |
Project Scope | The High Shoals Solar Farm, also known as High Shoals PV1, is a significant renewable energy project – this utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) facility has a capacity of 16 megawatts (MW). The project spans approximately 78.34 acres, utilizing ground-mounted solar panels to harness solar energy efficiently. The facility is expected to generate around 24,320 megawatt-hours (MWh) of electricity annually, contributing substantially to the region’s clean energy supply. The project was constructed on the site of the former Briar Creek Golf Course, reflecting a strategic repurposing of land for sustainable energy production. |
Rising Edge’s Scope of Work | Rising Edge performed the full engineering, procurement, and construction for a greenfield 44/34.5kV substation which connected the solar farm to an existing interconnection switching station. |
Voltage | 44/34.5kV |
