VAN BUREN COUNTY, Mich. — Greensol has begun construction on the 102-MW Murch Solar project in Michigan, marking another step forward in expanding utility-scale renewable energy capacity in the United States.
The project is being developed by Heelstone Renewable Energy, a subsidiary of Qualitas Energy, and represents a growing pipeline of large-scale solar developments across the Midwest.
Greensol, the U.S. execution arm of Spain-based Greening, is responsible for engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) services. The company brings global experience to North America, focusing on delivering turnkey solar and energy storage solutions tailored to local regulatory and market conditions.
The Murch Solar project underscores the increasing demand for experienced EPC providers capable of managing complex renewable energy installations. Greensol’s role highlights a broader trend of international firms expanding their presence in the U.S. market to meet rising energy needs.
“With Greensol, we continue to move forward on our roadmap, in which the United States is a priority market. We aim to address a clear need in the North American industrial market by providing a highly specialized and reliable technical partner, capable of executing complex solar and storage projects with quality, efficiency, and full regulatory compliance,” said Ignacio Salcedo, Executive Chairman of Greening.
The project also reflects continued investment in utility-scale solar infrastructure as states and developers seek to diversify energy portfolios and meet sustainability targets. Michigan, in particular, has seen increased renewable energy development due to favorable policies and growing demand for clean power.
In addition to the Michigan project, Greensol is currently constructing an 82-MW solar facility in Indiana, further strengthening its footprint in the Midwest. These projects illustrate the region’s emergence as a key hub for solar energy growth, driven by available land, grid access and supportive development frameworks.
The Murch Solar project is expected to contribute significantly to regional power generation capacity once completed, helping utilities and large energy users meet renewable energy goals while reducing carbon emissions.
For contractors and suppliers, the expansion of projects like Murch Solar signals continued opportunities in solar construction, including site development, electrical installation and long-term maintenance services.
As renewable energy demand accelerates nationwide, projects of this scale are becoming increasingly critical to maintaining grid reliability while transitioning toward cleaner energy sources.
