Toyota to offtake power from solar farm project

Toyota had agreed to offtake 100MW of solar energy from a project in Kentucky, U.S.A, that is converting a former coal mine into a new solar farm.
The sun will soon power more of Toyota Motor North America Inc.'s operations, thanks to a new power purchase agreement.

The firm has announced that it will offtake 100MW of electricity generated by renewable energy company Savion via its Martin County Solar Project. This exchange will be done through a virtual power purchase agreement. This project is coverting the former Martiki Coal Mine, currently a brownfield site on the border of Kentucky and West Virginia, into a solar photovoltaic energy facility.

The site is said to offer clear access to light from the sun, making it an ideal location for reclamation and the installation of solar photovoltaic panels for electricity generation. Construction on the project is anticipated to begin in mid-2023 and commercial operations are expected to begin in 2024. Once completed, this project is expected to be one of the largest solar energy generation facilities operating in Kentucky, U.S.A.

Toyota, meanwhile, will be utilising the 100MW to reduce the carbon footprint of its operations in North America. The firm aims to make all its operations in the region carbon-neutral by 2035.
