At AC Power, we believe in turning challenges into opportunities, and the Pine Avenue Landfill in Niagara, NY, is a shining example of this. Our new case study, published for BCONE - Brownfield Coalition of the Northeast, takes a closer look at how we developed this 13.5 MW-dc community solar project and outlines what you need to know when undertaking such an effort. Here’s what makes this project special: ✅ Powers over 2,300 homes with clean, affordable energy. ✅ Generates $500,000+ in local revenue for municipal and school budgets. ✅ Offsets 3,630 metric tons of CO2 annually, equivalent to planting 93,000 trees. This milestone project highlights the collaborative efforts between AC Power, Calibrant Energy, Montante Solar, and the Town of Niagara. Together, we transformed a site with a challenging past into a beacon of renewable energy and economic opportunity.
