In the USA a disused landfill is to be converted and used as an area where they will be installed photovoltaic solar modules 12.506. The new plant, built in New Jersey, will have an installed capacity of 3 MW - for a total value of $ 18 million - increasing the prestige of the state energy, the national leader in the exploitation of solar energy for power generation at low carbon emissions. New Jersey has in fact recently passed in California in terms of MW installed climbing to first place in the U.S. solar market.
The area, 13 acres, will become operational by the end of the year thanks to the collaboration between the SunDurance Energy that will take care of the supply module and the PSE & G will manage the plant. "The unused resources such as contaminated soil areas for the production of renewable solar energy and the increase in employment in the sector are a key component of this administration whose agenda includes important energy projects in the country's economic future," said Governor Kim gain the commitment adding that green energy in New Jersey is providing 430 MW of installed power.
