Solar power plant in Florida, United States of America. Approximate location 28.4774, -81.1804.

SolarFloridaUnited States of AmericaCO₂ reported

ACE-Stanton PV is a 5 MW solar power plant in Florida, United States of America. It is operated by ACE-Stanton LLC. Based on reported annual generation of 10 GWh, it can supply roughly 2,742 homes. It ranks #6164 of 9,833 United States of America power plants by installed capacity. Commissioned in 2017, it is around 9 years old — relatively modern. Its measured emissions of 1,331,143 t CO₂/yr (US EPA GHGRP) are equivalent to about 310,290 cars driven for a year. In context, solar supplies about 8.6% of United States of America's electricity; the national grid averages 384 gCO₂/kWh (43.0% low-carbon) (2025).

Local climate & thermal context

This solar plant converts sunlight directly into electricity with photovoltaic panels. It sits in a humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cfa) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 28.5°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.

Heating degree-days here run 93% below the median power plant in this dataset — a proxy for how much extra energy heated equipment must replace through its surfaces in winter.

Climate heat-demand index: 16/100 — this site sits in the bottom third of the power plants we cover by heating degree-days.

In colder climates, uninsulated hot equipment (boilers, turbines, valves, steam lines) loses proportionally more heat to ambient air — exactly the loss Inzonex modular insulation is designed to cut.

Solar PV loses ~0.35%/°C above 25°C cell temperature — roughly 0.8% at warm-season highs here (estimate).
