Renewable Land, a real estate investment firm based in Manhattan Beach, California, has announced the acquisition of a significant property in Ohio. The 435-acre site, located in Putnam County, is leased to the Blue Harvest Solar Park, a 50-megawatt solar power plant operated by EDP Renewables. This acquisition marks another major milestone for Renewable Land, solidifying their position as a leading investor in land for renewable energy projects across the country.
The solar farm at the Blue Harvest Solar Park plays a crucial role in powering Amazon’s operations. The clean energy generated by the facility will be used to power Amazon’s data centers, corporate offices, and fulfillment centers, contributing to the company’s ambitious goal of powering its operations with 100% renewable energy.
“We are thrilled to be a part of another cutting-edge renewable energy project,” said Alex Stone, President of Renewable Land. “This acquisition underscores our commitment to supporting the long-term growth of renewable infrastructure in the United States.”
Renewable Land specializes in acquiring land for renewable energy projects, including solar, wind, and battery storage facilities. The firm, founded by Alex Stone, J.C. Frey, and P.J. Fielding, has a strong track record in managing energy and infrastructure investments, with over $15 billion in assets under management.
This acquisition highlights the growing demand for renewable energy and the role of private investment in driving the transition to a cleaner energy future. Renewable Land’s continued investment in solar energy projects like the Blue Harvest Solar Park is a testament to their commitment to supporting sustainable development and environmental stewardship.
