EPA RE-Powering Mapper Completed Installations
Description
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of Land and Emergency Management (OLEM) Office of Communications, Partnerships and Analysis (OCPA) initiated the RE-Powering America's Land Initiative to demonstrate the enormous potential that contaminated lands, landfills, and mine sites provide for developing renewable energy in the United States. Using publically available information, RE-Powering maintains a list of completed renewable energy installations on contaminated sites and landfills. To date, the RE-Powering Initiative has identified 179 renewable energy installations on 171 contaminated lands, landfills, and mine sites, with a cumulative installed capacity of just over 1,124 megawatts (MW) and consistent growth in total installations since the inception of the RE-Powering Initiative. This dataset is current as of April 2016.
