A new 135MW Conway solar project is set to be deployed in Arkansas. The facility will be built, owned and managed by Lightsource bp. The Conway Solar project is a part of the multiple solar projects included in Lightsource’s $533 million portfolio financing package.
Through this solar project, the company intends to create sufficient electricity for up to 21,400 homes and will likewise assume a part in reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the city by about 162,800 tonnes per year, an equivalent of carbon emissions from 35,400 diesel cars each year.
The Conway Solar project will be located near Happy in Arkansas. On completion, the plant will generate clean energy under a long-term power purchase agreement, covering customers residing in the City of Conway.
