Overview

About the project.

Bithenergy developed, financed and constructed Maryland's first 10-megawatt Virtual Aggregate Net Metering (VANM) solar and battery storage project. Built in five distinct phases on a single co-located site in Howard County, the project features advanced grid integration through BGE and is a model for multi-phase solar deployment. Each phase has its own power purchase agreement, collectively supporting clean energy access for public and nonprofit entities.

Bithenergy originated the project, arranged financing, and negotiated and executed the PPAs for all five phases, coordinating site improvements, engineering and tax assessments with local government and private entities. The site is accessed by a bridge immediately off a major state route, so specialized logistics and planning were essential.

The project includes a renewable energy training facility serving local schools, churches and nonprofit organizations, advancing both workforce development and environmental equity goals.
