Chaberton Energy and Pivot Energy are partnering on a Maryland solar project aimed at powering both commercial and community customers.
The 19-acre site, named Project Catherine, sits on St. Mary Coptic Orthodox Church’s property in Cooksville, Md. and is expected to generate 4.3 MW. A portion of the project supplies energy directly to the church, with the rest serving Loyola University Maryland and the surrounding community via subscription model.
“Pivot Energy shares our passion for the energy transition and works tirelessly to help communities access local, affordable, clean energy,” says Mike Doniger, chief operating officer at Chaberton Energy.
“This project showcases our development team’s creativity as it combines three different solar business models in one project: a community solar project, a power purchase agreement with a nonprofit and the offsetting of on-site electricity usage. We are grateful to St. Mary Church, Howard County officials, Loyola and so many others who collaborated to make this a reality.”
The site was originally developed by Chaberton and recently acquired by Pivot.
Community solar subscribers will have access to 3.4 MW of capacity via the Maryland Community Solar program. Loyola will have access to 750 kw of direct current via the Maryland Aggregate Net Energy Metering program and the balance will be used to offset the church’s on-site load.
Pivot donated to the Power52 Foundation, a workforce development organization that helps at-risk individuals from the Baltimore area. Chaberton donated money to Bright Minds Foundation, a community group that supports Howard County public education, and the Community Ecology Institute, a Maryland nonprofit.

Maryland Commercial-Community Hybrid Solar Project Begins Generating Power
If the situation in the United States weren’t so tragic, this meme would be funny.
The Republicans are banking on the fact that American voters are so stupid that they don’t know that it was the Trump administration that created the affordability issues. Gas prices around here are currently almost exactly $2.00 more than they were when Trump started this pointless and illegal war in Iran.
Does what Hannah Arendt said at left apply to Donald Trump today?
Not sure. I’m fairly certain that, for instance, Trump wants as many morons as possible to believe that the 2020 election was rigged.
However, the bulk of what she said is absolutely true. Trump most certainly wants to deprive people of the capacity to think and judge.
