Florida Electric Power Lighting (FPL) and a real estate development company will join hands and are expected to start engineering at the end of 2010 to build the first Sun City in the United States.
According to Reuters, Florida Power & Light Group Inc. is working with real estate development group Kitson & Partners to prepare for Fort Myers in southwestern Florida. Nearby, create a new environmentally friendly city, the Babcock Ranch. This will build the world's largest photovoltaic solar power station.
After the completion of the new Sun City, it will have 19,500 households and 6 million square feet of retail, light industry and office space. The entire plan is expected to cost US$2 billion. (1 US dollar is equivalent to 6.83 yuan)
Syd Kitson, CEO of Kitson Partners, said that Whitecock Ranch will create 20,000 jobs, which can be extended to other communities and cities in the United States. According to the company, White Cow Ranch is a living laboratory for companies, workers and families to reap the benefits of innovation.
According to a spokesperson for the plan, Whitecock Ranch will become the first solar-powered city in the United States, as the city will use all solar energy and will generate more solar energy than Sun City, thus making Whitecock The pasture has become a net export city for solar energy. In addition, in addition to solar power generation, the city will provide wireless Internet access and electric car chargers.
The construction of the Sun City Center will start in June 2010, and the first batch of residents and commercial housing units will begin construction at the end of 2010.
As the US recession deepens and property prices continue to fall, President Obama has promised to shift the US economy to a green energy economy and create millions of jobs. Since the financial crisis, the Florida real estate market has been particularly hard hit by many unfavorable factors, such as high loss of mortgage redemption rights, continued decline in housing prices, and low population growth. The Obama administration plans to use 10% of electricity in the United States in 2012 and 25% of electricity in the United States in 2025 to come from renewable sources such as wind and solar. In February of this year, Obama signed a $787 billion economic stimulus plan, many of which were used for clean energy investments. However, Florida Power Lighting and developer Kitson Partners said they are not planning to use the government's economic stimulus plan funds to build Sun City.
Eric Silagy, chief development officer at Florida Lighting, said that the $350 million to $400 million photovoltaic solar power plant project, once approved by the Florida authorities, will be held at the end of 2009.
Hilaki said that the state government is very supportive of renewable energy and is very optimistic about the licensing of new photovoltaic solar power plants. We already have three (renewable energy) projects under construction. I think this proves that the state government is very supportive of this and the solar power plant project will advance rapidly.
Florida Power Lighting explained that the construction of the solar power plant will not be affected by the progress of the Sun City project.
