Sunflower 1 - a 103-kW community solar array located on the north side of the co-op's headquarters in Hammond - was announced to the public on March 4, 2014, energized on July 8 and dedicated on July 19, 2014. Supported by the Cooperative's Board of Directors and members, the array was one of the pioneers among electric cooperatives in Wisconsin.
All of SCEC's Sunflower 1's 206 panels are fully subscribed, and we still receive calls from people interested in participating, so we're looking to build a second community solar array.
