Honeywell Community Solar Project SB 13-2 Successfully Achieves Commercial Operation in Upstate New York

Steady execution of a 1 GW renewable pipeline fuels a strategic pivot toward behind-the-meter AI compute infrastructure.

Executive Summary
  • PowerBank Corporation announced the commercial operation of the SB 13-2 community solar project (7.01 MW DC / 5 MW AC) in upstate New York.
  • The facility is the latest milestone in a US$41 million transaction covering a 21 MW DC portfolio developed and constructed for Honeywell International Inc.
  • Project ownership is scheduled to transfer from Honeywell International to Honeywell Aerospace following a planned corporate spinoff on June 29, 2026.
  • The company highlighted its full-cycle execution capabilities and reiterated its strategic focus on supplying reliable, on-site power for AI compute infrastructure and modular data centers.
Material Impact
  • The announcement represents a routine operational milestone within a previously disclosed US$41 million EPC and development agreement.
  • It validates PowerBank's ability to execute complex, multi-site community solar projects and transition them into commercial operation.
  • The milestone provides incremental visibility into near-term revenue recognition from the Honeywell portfolio but does not introduce new contracts, pricing changes, or strategic shifts.
  • The transfer of ownership to Honeywell Aerospace is a corporate restructuring event that does not alter the underlying project economics or PowerBank's EPC revenue stream.
