Soon, a grassy hill in New Haven will be covered with more than 1,900 solar panels.
The hill – a former landfill at New Haven’s transfer station – will transform into a solar farm over the next six months.
The project not only gives unusable land new life. It will also increase electricity supply, which will be sold to United Illuminating at a fixed rate, New Haven Mayor Justin Elicker said.
