Commercial solar developer Safari Energy, a unit of PPL Corp., announced a new partnership to develop several commercial solar projects for ShopCore Properties, an owner and operator of community, power and grocery anchored centers throughout the country.

Part of The Blackstone Group, ShopCore Properties owns over 20 million square feet of real estate

The first project of the relationship, a 240 kilowatt (kW) solar rooftop system at Gilroy Crossing Power Center in Gilroy, California, was completed earlier this year. Anchored by Target (NAP), Kohl's, Ross, Bed Bath & Beyond, Michaels, Barnes & Noble, and PetSmart, Gilroy Crossing is expected to produce approximately 360,000 kilowatt hours of electricity in its first year of operation

Three additional commercial solar projects between ShopCore and Safari Energy are nearing completion with several more in the pipeline. These additional projects are located in Deptford Township and Sewell in southern New Jersey, as well as Stockton and San Leandro in northern California.

Safari Energy has developed or acquired more than 400 commercial solar projects nationwide, including dozens in New Jersey and California alone.
