North Carolina wrapped up another productive year for solar energy in 2015, as Duke Energy companies set a new record for the amount of PV energy installed in the state at 300MW — enough to power about 60,000 homes.
Global technology leader Google and renewable energy developer Duke Energy Carolinas are teaming up to develop a 61MW PV project in North Carolina that is set to help account for a portion of the power demand for Google’s new data centre in Lenoir.
PV provider Hanwha Q CELLS has signed off on a shipment deal that will see the company provide 35MW of its modules to utility-scale solar project developer SunEnergy1.
