PSEG Solar Source today announced it has acquired a 16.8MW-dc solar energy facility from Ecoplexus Inc. The PSEG Turkey Creek Solar Energy Center is located in Northampton County, N.C. about 95 miles northeast of Raleigh. 

The PSEG Turkey Creek Solar Energy Center has a power purchase agreement with Virginia Electric and Power Company. It sits on approximately 75 acres under a 35-year lease with a private landowner.

"We are delighted to work with a top-flight developer like Ecoplexus as we continue to grow our business and expand our solar portfolio across the country," said Diana Drysdale, President of PSEG Solar Source. "This purchase is another example of PSEG’s commitment to providing a sustainable energy future. When operational, this facility will power 2,400 homes."

Ecoplexus is the engineering, procurement and construction contractor and will operate the project for PSEG Solar Source upon completion. Construction is underway and commercial operations are expected to begin later this year. The facility will use approximately 50,000 mono-crystalline Trina Solar panels with Power Electronics inverters.

"Ecoplexus is very pleased to build upon its successful partnership with PSEG in bringing new clean energy online for the state of North Carolina," said John Gorman, CEO of Ecoplexus. "The Turkey Creek project will create approximately 185 construction jobs in addition to adding to the tax base of Northhampton County community."
