A property along Interstate 70 southwest of Parachute thatâs already home to natural gas wells also will be producing another form of power according to the plans of a Denver company. Pivot Energy is pursuing a project to install solar power on about 20 acres of a 114-acre parcel sandwiched between I-70 and U.S. Highway 6 just west of the I-70 exit southwest of Parachute. The land is owned by Strait Bottom Ranch LLC. The 3-megawatt direct-current installation would produce power equivalent to that required by 400 to 500 average homes, the company estimates. The project would supply power to Xcel Energyâs SolarRewards Community program, which lets customers subscribe to third-party, community solar garden projects and receive credits applied against their utility bills.
