EDF Renewables Signs Agreement with Thermo Fisher Scientific for Millers Branch Solar Project

“The purchase of low carbon electricity from Millers Branch Solar supports Thermo Fisher’s progress toward its net-zero commitment. The project will also contribute to the local economy - the construction phase will provide job creation, local spending with vendors, and an expanded tax base,” said Valerie Barros, Senior Director of Origination and Power Marketing at EDF Renewables.

Once complete, the project is expected to generate 545,000 MWh of renewable energy annually, enough to meet the consumption of nearly 51,000 average homes.

This is equivalent to avoiding over 386,000 metric tons of carbon (CO₂) emissions annually which represents the greenhouse gas emissions from over 83,000 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles driven over the course of one year.

EDF Renewables, one of the largest renewable developers in North America, is committed to providing solutions to meet our customer’s carbon-reduction goals.

With 35 years of experience and 24 gigawatts of wind, solar, and storage projects developed, EDF Renewables provides integrated energy solutions from grid-scale power to electric vehicle charging.
