Abstract:

Solar energy is now helping power homes and businesses served by electric cooperative EnergyUnited, with a new photovoltaic solar farm in Taylorsville. The solar panels use a tracking system to follow the sun’s movement during the day, which increases sunlight capture and significantly reduces land use requirements. EnergyUnited is also investing in hydropower, wind power, and biomass projects.
