How Community Solar is Supporting the Town of Fort Edwards
GreenSpark partnered with Kendall Sustainable Infrastructure (KSI) and AC Power to provide the engineering, procurement, and construction for this 6.9 MW solar array located on an old landfill in Fort Edwards, NY.
Environmental Impact of Fort Edwards Community Solar Array
This community solar project will provide clean energy to more than 800 local households and provide the following environmental impact each year:
- Reducing 5,845 tons of CO2 from the atmosphere
- Eliminate over 13.5 million miles driven by gas-powered vehicles
- Equivalent to charging over 350 million cell phones
- Equivalent to 230,310 trash bags recycled instead of sent to a landfill

“This project supports New York State’s ambitious clean energy goals and showcases how innovative approaches can turn environmental challenges into sustainable opportunities. We are grateful to have partnered with a range of experienced, dedicated stakeholders in making this project a reality.
The KSI and GreenSpark Partnership
While this project sparks a big impact, this is not the first time GreenSpark and KSI have partnered together to bring clean energy to New York State. In 2020, KSI and GreenSpark constructed over 45 MWs through 15 different projects across the greater Rochester, Finger Lakes and Plattsburgh regions.
Most recently, GreenSpark and KSI teamed up again to deploy nearly 13 MW on two brownfield solar array projects in Upstate New York that helped to power local towns, households, and businesses.
Our work with KSI illustrates the importance in finding the right partner and the results that can be achieved through a strong partnership. We look forward to many more projects together, continuing to power more communities in New York State with clean, renewable energy from the sun.
