The Solar Showdown at the SunSmart Ames Solar Farm scheduled for Thursday, Aug. 27 has been POSTPONED.
The SunSmart Ames Solar Farm was completed in December 2020 with hundreds of participants investing in energy production.
Ames Electric Services customers can still purchase shares in the solar farm, called “Power Packs” at $240 each. Each Power Pack represents 175W of generating capacity. For those who may be in Ames a short time, Power Packs are transferable and can be donated or sold to another Ames Electric customer or back to the utility.
