ENGIE and Community Energy anticipate beginning construction of the Adams County, PA solar project in May 2020. The 80-megawatt solar array will generate 22% of the City of Philadelphia’s expected consumption over a long-term contract. As the largest solar construction project in the region, the development will consist of multiple arrays of solar panels mounted on single-axis tracker units with electrical components connecting the generation facilities to the nearby transmission grid. More background on the project can be found in a December 18, 2018 project announcement linked here.

The Economic Opportunity Plan includes goals for procuring subcontracting services and supplies from City of Philadelphia based minority, women, and disabled-person owned (M/W/DSBE) businesses. Scopes of work are both general in nature and specialized to the solar industry. The various scopes of work will be overseen by a general contractor who will work with subcontractors to build and implement the project using best practice contracting and performance standards.
