The 75-MW Whistling Duck Solar Energy Center is now online, providing solar electricity to four Florida communities.
Whistling Duck Solar
Whistling Duck Solar is the fourth solar site in Florida Municipal Power Agency’s (FMPA) Florida Municipal Solar Project and concludes Phase II of the 300-MW project. Located in Levy County near Williston, Florida, the project was constructed by Origis Energy.
Homestead, Key West, Lake Worth Beach and Winter Park are each set to receive power from Whistling Duck Solar Energy Center. Homestead, Lake Worth Beach and Winter Park first began receiving solar power from Rice Creek Solar Energy Center last December at the initiation of Phase II of the FMSP.
FMPA serves as the project coordinator and participating municipal utilities – who are member-owners of FMPA – purchase power from the project. Origis Energy is the builder, owner and operator of the facility.
“We are proud of our continued partnership with FMPA and its participating members. Whistling Duck Solar will directly contribute to FMPA’s goal of providing efficient and stable solar power to the communities it serves,” said Vikas Anand, Chief Executive Officer of Origis Energy. “We are excited about the addition of this project to Florida’s energy infrastructure.”
Whistling Duck Solar achieved commercial operation in December 2025 and follows the successful completion of the 75-MWAC Rice Creek Solar Energy Center from December 2024.
