Ameresco and the City of Somersworth, N.H. have broken ground on a PV installation at the Somersworth Landfill.
The 2,577 kW project is expected to generate 3,523,443 kWh in its first year.
Energy produced by the project is set to be sold to the city under the state’s group net metering program. The project will pay the city a lease and a payment in lieu of taxes.
We’re proud to partner with the City of Somersworth on this innovative landfill solar project,” says Jon Mancini, senior vice president of Ameresco.
“This initiative demonstrates the potential of repurposing land for renewable energy and enhancing landfills to become more sustainable. We’re excited to begin construction and contribute to the city’s bright clean energy future.”
The project has received the necessary permits and approvals from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services, with construction expected to begin later this month.

To Be a Citizen of the World
Sure, there have been many other people who have lived according to the beliefs expressed here by philosopher and American revolutionary Thomas Paine, but their numbers don’t begin to compare with those who think of themselves as patriots of the country of their birth and adherents to the religion they were assigned by their parents.
What a terrible shame. It’s easy to imagine a world of peace and harmony, but it sure seems an incredible challenge to get there. This is especially true today, on a planet that is increasingly led by fascist dictators, and a population where ignorance, nationalism, and hate is heating up by the day.

America’s Top Military Are Disgusted by Trump
Virtually all top-ranking retired military brass view Trump as shown at left. On top of that, Hegseth has publicly fired all current generals and admirals who are not loyal to Trump, as the entire world watched the purge.
Doesn’t this affect the way the psychopath’s command of our nation is ultimately determined?
