SunEdison Completes Construction On 2 Megawatt Solar Power Plant For Maryland Town

SunEdison announced that it has completed construction on a 2 megawatt solar power plant for the Town of Elkton, Maryland. The Mayor and Commissioners approved a 20-year power purchase agreement with SunEdison to buy the solar power generated by the system and estimate that it will save the town more than $2 million on electricity costs over the life of the agreement. The solar power plant is expected to generate enough energy each year to power more than 270 homes and will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by more than 4 million pounds—the equivalent of taking more than 400 cars off the road.
