Project Details
Solar for Public Good
NT Solar invested in the $12.8 million solar investment tax credits (ITCs) generated by the development of seven ground-mounted solar installations in New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Lodestar Energy is an established northeast developer with more than 100 Megawatts (MW) in completed installations. The installations in New York are located in designated Opportunity Zones and Lodestar has been at the forefront of combining solar and OZ. The off-takers of the new installations will receive electricity cost savings and include public schools, towns, water treatment facilities, nonprofits, and community residential subscribers.
“We are excited to complete our fourth tax equity financing with NTCIC and are very proud of the work we’ve done as a team to bring new renewable electricity generation to local communities across the northeast.” Said Jack Funk, Managing Partner of Lodestar Energy.
