Moore inks solar deal to double Maryland’s renewable power portfolio (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Maryland is doubling the amount of renewable power purchased by state government under a 20-year deal that Democratic Gov. Wes Moore announced Wednesday. Beginning in 2028, REV Renewables will provide about 250,000 megawatt-hours annually to Maryland government from its Jade Meadow III Solar Project — a solar farm planned for a reclaimed coal mine in western Maryland and, according to the company, the largest proposed in the state.
