In 2017, former US President Jimmy Carter leased 10 acres of his Plains, Georgia farm for a 1.3-megawatt solar installation. The project, developed with SolAmerica, was designed to power around half of the town and reflected Carter's long-standing advocacy for renewable energy, which began during his presidency in the late 1970s. His death has prompted renewed attention to the initiative as an example of his commitment to clean energy.
Why now: People are revisiting Carter's renewable energy legacy following his death in December 2024.
