Residents of Martinsburg may have noticed new construction on Flat Rock Road recently. The project being constructed is a 4.8 MW community solar installation due to be completed later this Spring. “Community solar provides homeowners, renters, and businesses equal access to the economic and environmental benefits of solar energy generation regardless of the suitability of their home or business for an on-site solar array,” US Light Energy Communications Outreach and Engagement Manager Scot Schechner, said.
