SunShare has announced the commissioning of its Uncompahgre Community Solar Garden, Colorado’s largest community solar project to-date, totaling just over five megawatts DC. The Weld County-based solar array now generates clean, solar energy for 450 Colorado homes, the City of Westminster, and the Highlands Ranch Community Association. It is the first five-megawatt project to be built after the 2019 Community Solar Gardens Modernization Act allowed for larger gardens and eliminated geographic restrictions for participation, enabling this garden to serve subscribers from 13 Colorado counties and 40 cities. /*** Advertisement ***/ “It is exciting that 10 years after we created the first open-market community solar garden in Colorado, our 22nd Colorado solar garden is now the largest in our home state and serves more residents than any other community solar garden in Colorado’s history,” David Amster-Olszewski, SunShare’s CEO and Founder, said. “I couldn’t be more proud to energize this garden that is subscribed by my friends, neighbors, members of the SunShare team, and so many other Colorado residents who were previously unable to participate due to size and geographical restrictions.”
