Danville Utilities, in partnership with CS Energy LLC, Navisun LLC, and TurningPoint Energy, has completed a 14 MWdc utility-scale solar project in Danville, Virginia. The renewable energy project is the city's largest solar development to date.

The solar project is located in Pittsylvania County and is comprised of two adjoining sites: Irish Road and Whitmell. The 100-acre project will generate an estimated 23,551 MWh each year for the community. The power produced by the solar array equates to approximately three percent of Danville Utilities' yearly energy output, or enough clean energy to power 1,500 homes each year.

The Irish Road Solar Project will provide power directly to Danville Utilities, reaching approximately 42,000 customer locations in a 500-square-mile service territory in southern Virginia.

CS Energy is a leading integrated energy firm that designs and builds optimized projects in the solar, storage, and emerging energy industries and provided the project's engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services.

Construction of the project began in December 2019 and went live on August 26, 2020.
