We are proud to expand our renewable energy footprint and harness #solarpower in #Mississippi! ☀ Today, we are thrilled to announce the inauguration of our 175-megawatt solar park, Pearl River, the largest solar park in Mississippi by generation capacity to date and our #first project in the state! ⚡ Pearl River Solar Park will power more than 27,000 homes and will create significant economic and environmental benefits to Scott County by: 💧 Saving more than 222 million gallons of water each year, 🛠 Creating more than 400 construction jobs and two permanent jobs, 💰 And providing an estimated $50 million in taxes to local governments throughout the project’s life. Thank you to our #EDPRNA team, Scott County, and all our local and community partners who made this milestone in our journey to a net-zero energy future possible. 📰 Discover more about this milestone project and read the full press release at: https://lnkd.in/gcaviYsu #EDPRNA #renewables #solar #solarpower #sustainability #mississippi
