Jessie Audette Muniz, Senior Director of Project Development at Lightsource bp shares details about Lightsource bp’s approach to responsible solar energy development and the company’s solar projects in Pennsylvania (almost 50% of the new installations in 2020). Lightsource bp (one of the largest solar developers in the world) is a 50/50 joint venture with bp (Formerly British Petroleum).

Recently Governor Wolf's administration announced that Pennsylvania is making the largest solar power commitment of any state government in the country under an initiative to produce at least half of the state government's electricity needs (PULSE), through seven new utility scale solar arrays to be built around the state. One of which is expected to be located here in York County.  Learn about Pennsylvania's new approach, the array that is to be built in York county, the social, economic, and environmental benefits of solar and how Lightsource bp incorporates agriculture and sustainability into the company’s solar projects.
