Apple preps solar power farm near NC data center

Public Service Announcement

Apple‘s North Carolina datacenter may soon get some of its power from green sources, a search through local permits has uncovered. The proposal found by the Charlotte Observer would have some of the 171 acres of unused area across the street from the Maiden-based plant, at 6028 Startown Road, used to set up a solar power farm. Nicknamed “Project Dolphin Solar Farm A Expanded,” most details are unknown other than that Apple had to file an erosion control permit (PDF) to promise it wouldn’t pollute the nearby area.
