National Renewable Energy Corporation (NARENCO), a North Carolina based solar engineering, procurement and construction contractor, has begun construction of one of our state’s newest solar farms. On approximately 30 acres of land traditionally used for agricultural purposes, NARENCO is introducing a new kind of farming to the Warsaw community.
NARENCO will be constructing the 6.4 MW DC solar photovoltaic energy systems over the next three months. NARENCO, along with local and regional subcontractors, will construct solar systems with minimal environmental impact that will generate clean energy for many years to come. The approximately 9,300 MWh per year of electricity to be generated by the systems will be sold to Duke Progress Energy to power hundreds of local homes and businesses. The systems are expected to be supplying power by December 31st of this year.
Currently NARENCO has contracts to design and construct more than 32 MW of additional solar farms in eastern North Carolina by the first quarter of 2014. NARENCO’s commitment to renewable energy solutions is helping to keep our state at the forefront of this important industry.
