Solar Landscape, a commercial and community solar developer, and Walmart announced that Walmart will invest in 74 Solar Landscape community solar projects in Maryland and Illinois.
The commercial rooftop projects are currently under construction and expected to energize in 2024 and 2025. They will create nearly 43 megawatts (DC) of solar capacity for the surrounding communities.
Approximately half of the portfolio is designed to reduce energy costs for low- and moderate-income (LMI) households. In total, Solar Landscape estimates that the projects will save subscribers about $1 million annually on energy bills.
Solar Landscape and Walmart plan to explore follow-on investments and opportunities to achieve shared goals in the domestic community solar space.
