FPUA joins the Florida Municipal Power Agency’s solar power expansion project

In Florida, WQCS News reported that The Fort Pierce Utilities Authority (FPUA) said it is taking part in a major expansion of the Florida Municipal Solar Project.

FPUA has joined the Florida Municipal Power Agency (FMPA) along with 19 other Florida municipal electric utilities and Origis Energy.

The project currently consists of two solar farms, Taylor Creek Solar in Orange County and Harmony Solar in Osceola County, that generate nearly 150 megawatts (MW) of solar power.

“Participating in this large-scale project allows us to provide solar energy to our customers in the most cost-effective way,” said Javier Cisneros, FPUA utility director. “The cost of solar power from the project is approximately one-third the cost of the typical private, rooftop solar system. We are proud to offer our customers alternative energy options at a lower rate.”
