Public Service Electric and Gas Co. (PSE&G) has marked the first phase of construction at its Yardville Solar Farm on South Broad St. in Hamilton Township, N.J. The 4.4 MW facility is one of four ground-mounted solar farms that the utility is developing as a part of its $515 million Solar 4 All program.
Through the program, PSE&G expects to develop more than 20 solar projects, which represents an investment of more than $140 million that will provide New Jersey with 30 MW of solar-generated power.Â
The Yardville Solar Farm will be composed of 15,750 solar panels covering 15.75 acres of PSE&G property and will be connected directly to the electric grid. American Capital Energy is responsible for the deployment of the project.
