Powering up Delaware: Nautilus Solar Energy and TurningPoint Energy Launch One of the First Solar Farms in Major Renewable Energy Portfolio
DOVER, Del., June 11, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nautilus Solar Energy, LLC ("Nautilus") and TurningPoint Energy ("TPE") celebrated their collaboration on a new 4.7-megawatt direct current (MWdc) solar farm in Georgetown, Delaware on June 10, 2025, with a ribbon cutting event at the project site. The array is made up of nearly 9,000 solar modules and is part of a six-project, 30MWdc portfolio that has been developed by TPE and being built and operated by Nautilus. Distinguished guests, as well as executives from Nautilus and TPE, joined community members to mark the completion of the project. Construction was completed in early 2025 and is expected to begin delivering clean, renewable energy to customers within the Delmarva Power service territory in the next few months. This project is part of Delaware's Community Energy Facility Program that officially launched in April 2022 and signed into law via Senate Bill 2 (SB 2). This bill increased project size limits to 4 MWac and requires at least 15% of each project's capacity to serve low-income customers. "The opening of this community solar farm represents Nautilus's entrance in Delaware and our continued expansion of community solar across the United States," said Eric LaMora, Vice President of Community Solar at Nautilus. "TPE is a valued partner with Nautilus in our mission to make clean, affordable energy available to everyone, including low-income households and small businesses." "Today, we celebrate a milestone in our clean energy journey in Delaware — with the inaugural project that is part of Delaware's Community Energy Facility Program. This will be the first project to reach commercial operation as part of our $100M commitment to invest in the First State," said Salar Naini, President of TPE. This solar project will provide electric bill savings to residents, and other organizations that subscribe as part of the Community Energy Facility Program. Over its lifetime, this project is expected to generate approximately eight million kilowatt-hours annually, contributing to Delaware's goal of sourcing 40% of its electricity from renewable energy by 2035. "The use of solar and other renewable forms of energy is essential to protecting our life-sustaining natural world and its resources," said Sen. Stephanie Hansen. "We know that rising energy costs have been a major financial burden for countless Delaware families. Investing in additional, diverse, clean energy sources are not only a win for the environment, but a win in our ongoing effort to lower costs for our constituents and provide energy reliability." One of the local groups benefiting from the solar project is Springboard Delaware, a non-profit founded in 2020 to create innovative, affordable housing solutions that address the root causes of homelessness and promote long-term stability, health equity and upward mobility. Judson Malone, Co-Founder and Executive Director, said, "At Springboard Delaware, we believe housing stability and environmental sustainability go hand-in-hand. Being a beneficiary of this community solar project means we can lower our energy costs while advancing our mission to create safe, dignified housing for our most vulnerable neighbors. We're proud to be part of a project that reflects both economic and environmental justice." TPE and its partners are committed to making meaningful charitable community investments in every community where their solar projects are developed, including contributions to organizations like Springboard Delaware. These investments are designed to create lasting social value by supporting local nonprofits, educational initiatives and essential services. As part of this commitment, TPE has already contributed $100,000 toward its pledged $120,000 in community donations for this portfolio. With Nautilus matching the pledge, the total planned community investment will reach $240,000 upon completion of the portfolio's construction.

Minister hails ‘remarkable turnaround' of renationalised train operator
Lord Hendy described TransPennine Express (TPE) as 'the blueprint for Great British Railways (GBR)'. The Labour Government began renationalising all remaining franchised train operators in Britain on Sunday, by bringing South Western Railway under public control. The process is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2027. TPE, which runs trains across northern England and into Scotland, was renationalised under the Conservative government in May 2023 because of poor performance. Its reliability was badly affected by drivers no longer volunteering to work paid overtime shifts. Britain's train services were privatised in the mid-1990s. Services now under public control are owned by DFTO (Department for Transport Operator) until GBR is established. DFTO said TPE has reduced cancellations by 75% and recorded a 42% growth in passenger journeys over the past two years. It added that the operator generated £1.4 billion in 'economic value' during the 2023/24 financial year. TPE launched an improvement plan in October 2023 which prioritised stabilising operations. Lord Hendy said: 'TransPennine Express's remarkable turnaround shows exactly why we're bringing our railways back into public ownership as part of our plan for change. 'These impressive results demonstrate what happens when we put passengers and communities first rather than private profit. 'This is the blueprint for Great British Railways: a reliable, accessible and value for money railway that serves the public and drives economic growth not only across the North but the whole country.' TPE managing director Chris Jackson said: 'Public ownership gave us the space and stability to reset. 'Our focus has been on people, our passengers, our colleagues and the communities we serve. 'Two years on, we're proud to be delivering a better, more reliable railway for the North.'
