Solar project would be region’s largest

The Town of Canton, Massachusetts will save municipal costs by building one of the largest solar-powered facilities in New England.  The project is being built on the town's landfill and is expected to save the town at least several hundred thousand dollars per year.  A lease agreement (through Southern Renewable Energy of Boston) and rebates from NSTAR (on electricity not used by the municipality) will add to the revenue of the town.
