EAGLE POINT SOLAR
EAGLE POINT SOLAR. Located at 923 Peru Road, the company had its grand opening in 2010. The 2013 commercial address listed the company at 1600 Amelia Circle.
In 2013 the company announced plans to build Iowa's largest array of solar panels, tripling the size of what is now the state's biggest solar setup. Eagle Point Solar entered into an agreement with Farmers Electric Cooperative which would buy power produced from about 2,000 panels that will cover five to seven acres near Kalona. The co-op, which has about 640 customers, will take ownership of the solar farm after ten years. The operation was expected to eventually produce annually nearly 1 million kilowatt hours of energy.
