US-headquartered Entergy Louisiana and D. E. Shaw Renewable Investments (DESRI) have launched commercial operations at the 50 MW Sunlight Road Solar facility in Franklinton, Louisiana. The project will supply clean energy to Entergy Louisiana’s grid, generating enough electricity to power 11,500 homes. Built with over 100,000 photovoltaic panels and equipped with single axis tracking technology, the facility ensures efficient energy production. Through a 20-year power purchase agreement, Entergy Louisiana customers are expected to save $22 million. This project marks Entergy’s fourth solar resource in Louisiana, aligning with its commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
