Corvias, in collaboration with CRC Innovations and Onyx Renewables, completed a 13 MW solar power project on August 5 at US Army Garrison Fort Polk, Louisiana, as part of the Department of Defense’s energy resilience goals. The installation is expected to generate about 17,537 MWh annually, supplying 42% of the electricity needs for nearly 1,800 on-base military homes in its first year. The $29.2 million investment forms part of nearly $63 million in overall energy upgrades at Fort Polk, which already included geothermal systems and water-saving measures that have saved over $1 million annually since 2018. A ribbon-cutting ceremony and virtual roundtable marked the completion, with Corvias and CRC Innovations highlighting the project’s role in enhancing energy security and combat readiness. Plans are underway to add another 15–18 MW in the next phase, aiming for 100% renewable electricity for military housing and integration into future microgrids.
