How Will The Brightfields Initiative Help Invigorate Communities Nationwide?
• Brightfields are a clean and green option for serving local energy needs without adversely affecting air quality and climate. Solar energy systems provide a clean and reliable energy source that can be used to serve community businesses, residential homes, local transit, among other energy users. • Brightfields also provide an opportunity to attract environmentally conscious businesses that are interested in supporting green investments or locating in more environmentally friendly industrial parks. For example, locating solar module manufacturers on brownfields, as one type of brightfields redevelopment approach, provides a great opportunity to create new jobs and spur local markets for solar energy systems. • Solar power provides environmental benefits that are especially attractive to urban areas with air quality concerns. With zero emissions, solar energy systems can offset emissions from other energy sources particularly during peak hours when utilities often rely on older system
