The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has awarded nearly $200,000 in pollution prevention grants to the University of Turabo and the University of Puerto Rico’s Aguadilla campus to fund projects that will help prevent pollution in Puerto Rico.
A groundbreaking ceremony took place Wednesday to begin construction on the photovoltaic Salinas Solar Park, the first of three solar energy production projects developed and operated in Puerto Rico by partner companies Sonnedix and Yarotek.
One year after announcing the start of construction of Puerto Rico’s largest solar farm in Guayama, AES Ilumina, LLC and government officials witnessed Monday the start of operations of the $96 million clean energy production project that will sell all of its output to the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority under a 20-year power purchase agreement.
