Since 1981 the Dr John W. Coleman Greenergy
Park, a photovoltaic site in Beverly, MA, has been continuously producing electricity
from solar energy. This experimental
research facility was one of eight sites that were constructed during President
Carter’s administration in the late 1970’s.
The largest of its kind at the time and is now the oldest in the United
States, it is the last of the photovoltaic sites still operating from that era.
