Queen Anne’s County, MD — April 24, 2025 — GeoFire Solar, LLC (“GeoFire”) is proud to announce the acquisition of the Red Lion solar project, a 2.7-megawatt (MW) commercial-scale solar facility to be developed in Queen Anne’s County, Maryland. The project is part of the Maryland Community Solar Program and is scheduled for completion in Q3 2025.
The Red Lion project will provide affordable, clean energy to customers throughout the region.
“This acquisition marks a major milestone for GeoFire as we continue building our portfolio of commercial solar installations throughout the eastern United States. Solar benefits the surrounding communities by providing energy at affordable prices, all while providing stable, reliable revenue for GeoFire’s investors,” said Zach Grabill, President of GeoFire.
About the Maryland Community Solar Program
The Maryland Community Solar Program allows residents and businesses—including renters and those who cannot install solar panels on their rooftops—to participate in the benefits of solar energy. By subscribing to a portion of the energy produced by community solar projects like Red Lion, customers can receive guaranteed monthly savings on their electricity bills in the form of solar energy credits, without any upfront costs or equipment installation.
The program promotes equitable access to clean energy, with designated portions reserved for low- to moderate-income households, ensuring that the economic and environmental benefits of solar are shared across diverse communities.
Community Impact and Sustainability
The Red Lion project is expected to generate approximately 4,252,250 kWh of electricity annually, enough to power approximately 400–500 homes annually, offsetting thousands of tons of carbon dioxide emissions each year. The Red Lion project will not only help residents of Maryland to save on energy costs, but will also contribute to the State’s ambitious state-wide clean energy and climate goals.
