Coal Ash Disposal Sites and Opportunities for Solar Photovoltaic Development

Research output: NRELFact Sheet

Abstract

EPA's Office of Land and Emergency Management's RE-Powering America's Land Initiative is working with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to evaluate options for solar development on coal combustion residuals (CCR) landfills and surface impoundments where site conditions allow for safe development opportunities. This outreach doc (fact sheet) identifies engagement and technical assistance opportunities to enable new solar development activities at Coal Combustion Residual (CCR) sites by identifying key factors to be considered to identify potential sites for solar photovoltaic (PV) development.
