Caesars Entertainment in Atlantic City Adds Solar Arrays
Caesars Entertainment added a four-canopy, 6.5 MW solar portfolio at the gaming company’s Atlantic City destinations.
The installations were completed by DSD Renewables and are located across two different Caesars Atlantic City properties, producing approximately 8.29 MWh of clean energy each year. A fifth canopy is currently under development and is slated to be complete in 2024, bringing the solar portfolio to 7.4 MW.
These solar projects will offset approximately 6% of energy needs for the resort properties in the area.
“With our ongoing dedication to environmental sustainability and the communities we serve, our partnership with DSD plays a pivotal role in helping us adopt measures to minimize our carbon footprint,” says Eric Dominguez, SVP of Engineering & Asset Management at Caesars Entertainment, in a statement. “These projects in Atlantic City exemplify our pursuit to integrate more clean energy resources into our business and implement on-site renewables across our portfolio nationally while delivering real value locally to the communities in which we operate.”
The completed projects include 1.7 MW and 886 kW solar garage canopies at Caesars Atlantic City and two installations at Harrah’s Resort Atlantic City — a 1.9 MW solar canopy at Harrah’s self-park garage and a 1.9 MW canopy at Harrah’s valet garage. The effort also includes a 913 kW solar rooftop system at Harrah’s Waterfront Conference Center that will be installed in early 2024, further enhancing the LEED-certified convention space as a green meeting destination.
