Project Description and Location
About the Silverline Energy Center
Located in the Town of Lansing in Tompkins County, N.Y., the Silverline Energy Center is a proposed 150-megawatt photovoltaic solar energy generating facility.
- The Town of Lansing possesses the critical elements required for a solar project, including a strong solar resource, existing road infrastructure, access to transmission infrastructure, and available land in an area well-suited environmentally to host such a project.
- Proposed by a subsidiary of NextEra Energy Resources, LLC, the world’s largest generator of energy from the wind and sun, the Silverline Energy Center is expected to begin commercial operation in 2029.
- Project facilities will include utility-scale solar panels, access roads, electric collection lines, and electrical interconnection facilities.
- The planned onsite collection substation and interconnection facilities will be located adjacent to the solar arrays within the project area.
