The 78-MW Northumberland Project, owned and operated by Energix, is poised to generate enough electricity to power more than 15,000 homes. PVH preassembles its trackers, reducing the number of components delivered to solar construction sites and shortening installation time. In addition, 70% of PVH’s solar tracker components are produced in the United States, helping solar project developers meet for domestic content qualifications.
“Our collaboration with Energix demonstrates the importance of the American domestic manufacturing supply chain, with PVH working hand in hand with Energix to ensure a long-term, successful partnership,” said Rodolfo Bitar, VP of business development for PVH USA. “This collaboration solidifies PVH’s position as a leading solar tracker supplier in the United States and underscores our commitment to supporting large-scale renewable energy projects.”
The Northumberland Project is Energix’s second project in Pennsylvania, following the 105-MW Adams Project and others in Virginia. Slated for completion by 2025, the Northumberland Solar Project will be composed of approximately 170,000 solar panels.
“It’s exciting to be part of a project that not only helps increase renewable energy capacity in Pennsylvania but also underscores Energix’s commitment to the clean energy transition in the United States. We are excited to partner with PVH on this project, and glad to find a partner that is enthusiastic as us about creating sustainable, reliable and affordable energy solutions for communities across the country,” said Itamar Sarussi, deputy CEO and CCO of Energix Renewables.
