BRICKYARD SOLAR PROJECT

200 Megawatts of Clean Energy in Boone County, Indiana


For decades, NextEra Energy Resources' subsidiaries have been helping fuel America’s economic growth and quality of life and moving our nation toward energy independence. To date, we operate solar projects in more than 30 states and currently have two utility scale solar projects, Dunns Bridge Solar in Jasper and Starke Counties and Cavalry Solar in White County, under construction in Indiana, with many more, such as Brickyard Solar, in development across the state.


Features of the Brickyard Solar project:

  • Photovoltaic (PV) solar arrays capable of generating up to 200 megawatts (MW) of clean, renewable energy.
  • The project encompasses approximately 1,171 fenced in acres.
  • Subject to local and state approvals, the project is scheduled to begin operations by the end of 2022.
