  • CleanChoice Energy expands its renewable footprint with 54.2 MW solar projects in New York, doubling its Mid-Atlantic capacity and powering a greener future.

CleanChoice Energy has acquired two solar projects in New York, totaling 54.2 MW, from CS Energy. The Dolan and Hawthorn projects, each with a capacity of 27.1 MW, span 133 and 117 acres in Washington and Rensselaer Counties, respectively. Construction is set to begin this autumn, with connection to National Grid anticipated by Q4 2026. These projects were selected by NYSERDA for large-scale renewable energy contracts.

This acquisition doubles CleanChoice's generation capacity in the Mid-Atlantic region. It follows the company's first solar project in Franklin County, Pennsylvania, and ongoing construction in Kylertown, enhancing its renewable energy footprint.
