明尼阿波利斯，2024年11月14日, /美通社/ -- 今天，英國國家電網公司新能源宣佈其位於威斯康星州波爾克縣的100兆瓦（MW）蘋果河太陽能項目開始現場施工。預計該項目將通過創造就業機會和新的稅收收入，爲當地縣和鄉鎮帶來重要的經濟貢獻。
"As a company founded by a farmer in the Midwest, we have a strong commitment to bolstering rural economies through our renewable energy projects, and it's exciting to see that growth in western Wisconsin," said Joe Ibrahim, Vice President of Construction at National Grid Renewables.
「作爲一家中西部農民創辦的公司，我們對通過可再生能源項目增強農村經濟的承諾堅定不移，看到威斯康星州西部的增長令人興奮，」 英國國家電網公司新能源施工副總裁喬·易卜拉欣（Joe Ibrahim）表示。
Apple River is anticipated to generate over $36 million in direct economic impact throughout the first 20 years of operation, including an estimated $10 million in tax revenue to Polk County and local townships. Construction of the project will be performed by The Boldt Company and will sustain 150 construction and service jobs. Apple River will use First Solar Series 6 Plus bifacial modules.
蘋果河預計在運營頭20年內將產生3600萬美元的直接經濟影響，其中包括向波爾克縣和當地鄉鎮提供的估計1000萬美元的稅收收入。 該項目的施工將由The Boldt Company進行，將維持150個施工和服務崗位。 蘋果河將使用第一太陽能Series 6 Plus的雙面組件。
Once operational, the Apple River project will supply power to Xcel Energy to serve its customers across the Upper Midwest.
蘋果河項目投入運營後，將向埃克西爾能源提供電力，以滿足其在中西部的客戶需求。
"We are excited to see this project begin as it underscores our dedication to delivering clean, reliable and affordable energy to our customers," said Karl Hoesly, President, Xcel Energy-Wisconsin and Michigan. "This project is an important step in those goals while bringing significant economic benefits to Polk County and the local townships."
「我們很高興看到這個項目開始，因爲它強調了我們致力於向客戶提供清潔、可靠和價格合理能源的承諾，」 埃克西爾能源-威斯康星和密歇根總裁Karl Hoesly表示。 「這個項目是實現這些目標的一個重要步驟，同時爲波爾克縣和當地鄉鎮帶來了重要的經濟利益。」
"The women and men of Boldt are excited to have been selected by National Grid Renewables for this important project. It takes skilled labor and logistics coordination to efficiently execute these projects, and we are embracing the challenge," said Mark Osten, Vice President of Business Development for Boldt. "As Wisconsin's longest serving energy builders, we couldn't be more proud of our role in building this important renewable energy facility in our home state."
「Boldt的員工們很高興被英國國家電網公司新能源選中參與這個重要項目。要有效執行這些項目，需要熟練的勞動力和物流協調，我們正在迎接挑戰，」 Boldt的業務發展副總裁Mark Osten表示。「作爲威斯康星曆史最悠久的能源建設者，我們爲在我們的本州建設這個重要的可再生能源設施的角色感到無比自豪。」
"First Solar is pleased to be supporting National Grid Renewables with our cutting-edge American solar technology as they add Apple River to their impressive development portfolio," stated Darin Green, Senior Director of Technical Sales, First Solar. "Our company has deep roots in the Midwest, which is why we're especially proud to support partners and projects that work with sustainable, American technology to power America's heartland."
第一太陽能很高興能夠支持英國國家電網公司可再生能源，使用我們領先的美國太陽能技術，將蘋果河項目作爲他們令人印象深刻的開發組合之一，"First Solar的技術銷售高級董事Darin Green表示。"我們公司在美國中西部扎根，因此我們特別自豪支持那些使用可持續美國科技來爲美國中部提供能源的合作伙伴和項目。"
Above and beyond tax revenue and job creation, Apple River will also pledge approximately $500,000 to local charities and organizations over the first 20 years of operation through a dedicated charitable fund. These charitable funds are unique to National Grid Renewables and exemplify how the company commits to being a good neighbor within the communities in which their projects are built.
除了稅收和創造就業機會外，蘋果河在運營的頭20年還將向當地慈善機構和組織捐款約50萬美元，通過一個專門設立的慈善基金。這些慈善基金是英國國家電網公司獨有的，展示了該公司致力於成爲建設項目所在社區的好鄰居。
Anticipated to begin operation in late 2025, Apple River is anticipated to generate enough clean, renewable, local energy to provide the equivalent electrical usage of an estimated 26,000 homes each year. Using the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) greenhouse gas equivalencies calculator, the project is estimated to offset carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 129,900 metric tons annually – the equivalent of taking an estimated 30,900 cars off the road for a year.
預計於2025年末開始運營，蘋果河預計將產生足夠乾淨、可再生的當地能源，每年提供相當於約2.6萬戶家庭的電力使用量。使用美國環境保護局（EPA）的溫室氣體等效計算器，預計該項目每年將抵消相當於129,900公噸二氧化碳（CO2）排放，相當於估計有30,900輛汽車在路上行駛一年期間所排放的二氧化碳。
