ACCIONA Energía to build 235 MW solar project in the USA
ACCIONA Energía will begin site mobilization for Fleming Solar Farm (235MWp) in Kentucky (United States) in the coming weeks, a key step toward bringing the project online in May 2028.
Located in Fleming County, the new solar farm will become ACCIONA Energía’s fifth photovoltaic plant and its 18th renewable energy asset overall in the United States. The company currently has 3 GW of installed renewable energy capacity in the country, including photovoltaic, solar-thermal, wind, and energy storage assets.
The project is expected to deliver significant economic benefits to the local community. ACCIONA Energía will prioritize contractors, suppliers, and service providers from the region throughout both the construction and operational phases of the project.
During peak construction, Fleming Solar Farm is expected to create up to 300 local Kentucky jobs. The project will also generate significant tax revenues that will support local services and public infrastructure in Fleming County.
