In April of 2021, the City declared a climate emergency, and as a result, set a goal to reach 100% renewable energy for the City facilities by 2050. As a step towards reaching this goal, the City conducted a feasibility study in fall of 2022 to consider ground-mounted solar on city owned property adjacent to the Miami Water Treatment Plant (WTP) and adjacent to the Water Reclamation Facility (WRF). At this time, the City has decided to move forward with soliciting proposals for installing roughly 5 MW of ground mounted solar at the Miami WTP with the primary aim of reducing electric bills while also reducing carbon emissions, utilizing a brownfield site, and showcasing the City's commitment to its climate goals. The land available for the project is approximately 31 acres, across 5 sites all of which are adjacent to the WTP.
