• New Hampshire town energizes landfill solar site (solarbuildermag.com) — Derry has just switched on a 2.25 MW solar array built atop its closed municipal landfill, a project expected to save local taxpayers about $4 million over 25 years. Driven by the volunteer Derry NetZero Task Force and town leaders' net-zero goals, the installation should cover all municipal electricity needs while turning otherwise unusable land into a long-term clean energy asset.
