Pittsfield Township will be prioritized as the project’s first subscriber and will use the project to reach its 100% renewable energy goal.ĭTE is issuing an open Request for Proposal (RFP) for the engineering, procurement and construction of the project and anticipates that the project will begin generating energy in 2023. If built, the City of Ann Arbor will serve as the project’s anchor tenant, meaning it would agree to purchase power not subscribed by other customers. This new community solar project will be located on a capped landfill and on a greenfield site owned by the City of Ann Arbor.
Over the next decade, DTE will develop several utility-scale solar projects on the state’s shared electric grid, as well as smaller community solar projects, providing customers with increased access to low cost solar energy, Lauer adds.
