Case Study: Aerojet Rocketdyne Solar Farm “broke the ceiling on solar development in Arkansas”

Aerojet Rocketdyne Solar Farm required a unique project development structure in a challenging environment. Silicon Ranch worked closely with Aerojet Rocketdyne, Arkansas Electric, Ouachita Electric, Highland Industrial Park, and SAU Tech to address all stakeholder needs and deliver positive environmental, economic, and community benefits to South Arkansas.

The Aerojet Rocketdyne Solar Farm was the first utility-scale solar facility in the state of Arkansas.

Located in Camden, Arkansas, the project has won multiple state and national awards, but the greatest triumph for the project is its strategic role in Aerojet Rocketdyne’s decision to invest in the expansion of its local operations and to add more than 400 high-skilled jobs.

Video: At the Flip the Switch dedication event for the project in March 2016, Silicon Ranch gathered with state and federal government officials to introduce and celebrate the work of this impressive solar farm and to affirm the Arkansas and U.S. governments’ support for renewable energy.

Quotes from Our Utility Partners

"To meet our goals we set out to find a trustworthy partner who not only has the technical expertise to design, build, and deliver quality renewable energy solutions, but also has the appropriate understanding of the specific needs of our local electric cooperatives. Silicon Ranch impressed us with their ability to develop and finance innovative solar projects that address our specific business, strategic, and environmental objectives. Furthermore, they’ve gone ‘that extra mile’ to help Green Power EMC and our members to maximize the public awareness of our solar energy commitment. Georgia is the fastest-growing solar state in the country, and Green Power EMC is proud to work with Silicon Ranch to strengthen that position."

Jeff Pratt

“We’re pleased to work with Silicon Ranch, which has a trusted track record as a positive contributor to communities as a neighbor, landowner, and solar developer. TVA’s Generation Flexibility Program gives the people of Henry County the safe, reliable, affordable energy they’ve come to expect. This inaugural local project also helps to ensure Tennessee’s energy mix becomes more sustainable without compromising energy independence over the long term.”
