Ameresco has completed Utah’s first floating solar array, developed in partnership with Mountain Regional Water Special Service District.
The floating solar project, located on a holding pond at the Signal Hill Water Treatment Plant, was commemorated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by representatives from Ameresco, Mountain Regional Water and Rocky Mountain Power.
Ameresco partnered with PV developer D3Energy to develop the 587.5 kW floating solar array, supported by a $400,000 grant from Rocky Mountain Power’s Blue Sky Award program.
The project is designed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 609 metric tons each year.
“This floating solar array demonstrates the benefit of thinking beyond conventional approaches,” says Lou Maltezos, executive vice president of Ameresco.
“The notion that solar panels must be installed on land is an unnecessary limitation. By reconsidering their placement, we unlock new opportunities for sustainability. The District isn’t just implementing solar energy for its own sake. They are deeply invested in the economic aspects of this project. This first-ever floating solar array in Utah is both innovative and economically feasible, making it a prime example of sustainable development.”
The project was completed ahead of schedule, with commissioning completed on Sept. 20. Full utility permission to operate is expected by Oct. 23.
Rocky Mountain Power’s Blue Sky program awarded this project to the Mountain Regional Water Service District as one of a dozen community-based renewable energy projects awarded last year.

Keep in mind that “removing Trump from office” and “stop talking about Trump” are two different events.
It’s quite possible that a Democrat-controlled congress could remove him from power within the coming months. But think about the damage he’s done to our nation and the path to repair it. Think about the war, the trade deals, the economic policies, our relationships with our allies, the racism, our erstwhile position as leader in world democracy, and the degradation in public health, education, and environmental responsibility.
We’ll be talking about Trump as long as an organized human civilization is functioning on this planet.
To the a
uthor of the meme here, I would suggest that hate and ignorance are far more aggressive forms of cancer.
Yes, Hegseth and RFK, Jr. will be gone, but I think what’s going to happen first is the decapitation of the snake itself, i.e., the removal of Trump from the presidency.
Based on the news on social media, this could happen via the 25th Amendment, based on Trump’s mental deterioration. In my view, that’s a shame. If he’s not criminally prosecuted, this nation will be deprived of letting the American people and the rest of the world know that rule of law still matters in the United States.
