About the project

The projects will provide power to PJM (Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland) Interconnection, a Regional Transmission Organization (RTO) and Independent System Operator (ISO) that manages the electric transmission system for 13 states and the District of Columbia.

Agilitas Energy expects the project to be operational in late 2028 and that the 15 MW capacity will generate enough clean, reliable and predictable energy to power over 5,000 homes annually.

Hydropower offers reliable baseload power, long asset lifespans of often more than 50 years and low operating costs, all qualities that make it a natural complement to Agilitas Energy’s growing renewable energy portfolio. This acquisition reflects the company’s commitment to diversifying its asset base and pursuing the most effective energy solutions, wherever and however they’re needed, to strengthen the grid and meet growing electricity demand.
