Fieldale Corporation based in Baldwin, GA. has established a six-acre installation in partnership with Georgia Power. The array will generate 1.5 megawatts at peak, generating 185,000 kilowatt hours per month. This is equivalent to the consumption of 200 domestic homes and will offset 1.8 million lbs. of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere each year.
 The press released did not indicate whether any state or federal funds were used to establish the solar array. An ongoing program administered by USDA has made available funds for environmental projects to conserve energy and to install renewable generation of power.
