A Houston-based energy solution company has made some big moves on the East Coast.

Aggreko’s Energy Transition Solutions division acquired a portfolio of nine community solar projects in the state of New York.

The ground-mounted installations will total approximately 59 MW of generating capacity Aggreko ETS also successfully connected the first of the nine projects to the grid, a 5.9 MWdc project in the town of Vernon, 40 miles east of Syracuse.

The nine community solar sites aim to assist low-and-moderate income New Yorkers in benefiting from clean solar energy without residential solar installations.

Aggreko ETS will be in charge of the construction of these projects. Aggreko, which is headquartered in Houston, is actively investing in more sustainable products, fuels, innovative technology, and services to make greener solutions accessible.

“We’re thrilled to complete this important transaction, which reinforces Aggreko’s capabilities as an experienced renewable energy developer, owner, and operator that can deftly structure and execute complicated asset acquisitions to scale its business,” says Prashanth Prakash, Aggreko ETS’s chief commercial officer in a news release.
