With rising energy costs and the worsening climate crisis, some wastewater treatment plants have started using solar energy. Because solar adoption at wastewater treatment plants is still relatively new, there is little known about these facilities, including where they are, what drove them to choose solar, and if solar has been a success.
Intro: The more we can reduce energy use at wastewater treatment plants, which are big users, the more of an environmental impact there is. But also from a financial perspective, for the municipalities that own and operate these plants, this could be a big money saver.
So in some cases, wastewater treatment facilities are— the municipalities are installing the solar on site and directly consuming that electricity. And many other scenarios, the municipality is entering what's called a power purchase agreement with a solar developer.
