Lexington, KY

Developing a solar facility on repurposed closed-landfill property by funding early project development and construction readiness.

• Transforming closed landfill land: The Haley Pike Solar Project will repurpose 357 acres of municipally owned brownfield land in Lexington, including a closed landfill.
• Power generation target: The project is designed to generate renewable electricity sufficient to power about 5,000 to 7,000 homes each year.
• Early-stage development funding: Proceeds are intended to support safe-harbor and begin-construction expenditures, interconnection and QF study activities, and engineering and diligence work.
• Permitting and compliance work: Planned uses include development deposits, permitting, and legal, accounting, filing, escrow, compliance, and administrative expenses.
• Local and public benefits: The development approach is designed to support local construction employment and generate new public revenue through responsible landfill reuse in coordination with the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government.

Haley Pike Solar is raising capital for Phase I working-capital and project-development needs to move the Haley Pike Solar Project from development stage toward construction readiness. Proceeds are intended to support safe-harbor and begin-construction expenditures, interconnection and QF study activities, and engineering and diligence work. Additional expected uses include development deposits, permitting, and legal, accounting, filing, escrow, compliance, and administrative expenses, along with funding for a payment reserve. Through a project-company structure, funds may be used directly or advanced to support affiliated entities for the disclosed development and operating activities.

The project plans to repurpose 357 acres of municipally owned brownfield land in Lexington, including a closed landfill. The Haley Pike Solar Project will convert retired landfill property into solar photovoltaic infrastructure designed to generate renewable electricity sufficient to power about 5,000 to 7,000 homes each year. The project is expected to create local construction employment and generate new public revenue while demonstrating how retired landfill land can support Kentucky’s energy future. Development is being advanced with local leaders, stakeholders, and the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government, with an emphasis on environmental stewardship and responsible land reuse that helps preserve prime farmland. The resulting generation is intended to strengthen regional grid resilience and support long-term clean energy capacity.

Company Info

Haley Pike Solar develops and plans to build and operate a utility-scale solar PV facility on a closed landfill site in Lexington, Kentucky.

Haley Pike Solar develops, constructs, owns, and operates a utility-scale solar photovoltaic project planned for the closed Haley Pike landfill in Lexington, Kentucky. The project targets approximately 45 MW AC capacity and is intended to convert about 357 acres of municipally owned brownfield land into productive clean-energy infrastructure. The planned operation is expected to supply renewable electricity supported by typical project arrangements such as power purchase or utility agreements and related environmental attributes.

The business operates through a project-company structure during development, preparing the site and enabling grid connection before construction. Key activities include interconnection and feasibility studies, engineering and due diligence, permitting and compliance work, and development spending required to reach construction readiness. Once operational, the facility is designed to generate long-term renewable power while enabling productive reuse of retired landfill land.
