US-based Invenergy has begun commercial operations of the Richfield Solar Energy Center, a 50 MW solar facility in Dorchester County, Maryland. The energy generated from the center was contracted to Verizon through a virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA). Invenergy, Verizon, and M&T Bank, the project’s financial partner, started the operations with a ribbon-cutting. The facility aimed to support Maryland’s goal of reaching 50% renewable energy by 2030. The Richfield Solar facility adds  Invenergy’s Todd Solar Energy Center in Hurlock, which has been operating since 2021 and generates 20 MWh of clean energy.
