BALTIMORE, May 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Broad Street Realty, in partnership with Centennial and Madison Energy Infrastructure, has announced the completion of a new 1 MW(dc) rooftop solar installation at Hollinswood Shopping Center in Baltimore County. The project follows the 2.4 MW(dc) rooftop solar project that the companies recently completed at Cromwell Shopping Center, a 233,000 square foot shopping center anchored by an AutoZone mega hub and a Roses.
The project is designed to reduce the cost of electricity for approximately 1,000 homes in the area, while increasing power production in the State of Maryland. The project uses over 1,500 solar panels with a ballasted racking system across Hollinswood Shopping Center’s 100,000 square foot roof.
Centennial developed the project, with construction performed by Halo, a solar engineering contractor. The project received financing from AccelDev and will be owned and operated by Madison Energy Infrastructure. Venable served as transactional counsel to Centennial.
“We’re thrilled to collaborate again with Centennial and MEI to bring solar energy to Hollinswood Shopping Center,” said Michael Jacoby, Chairman and CEO of Broad Street Realty. “These recent solar projects align with our company’s commitment to reducing our carbon footprint and implementing ESG-focused initiatives across our properties. Together, we’re contributing to Maryland’s goals of supporting our local communities with reduced electricity costs for families, while increasing power generation in the state through clean energy.”
David John Frenkil, Founder and Managing Principal of Centennial: “The rooftop solar project at Hollinswood Shopping Center is the most recent example of how owners of commercial real estate can grow their net operating income while contributing to efforts to lower electricity costs for households and businesses, while increasing energy generation in Maryland – a state that currently imports nearly 40% of the electricity that it consumes.”
Chip Brubaker, President of AccelDev: “The Hollinswood project shows how strategic financing and strong partnerships can provide meaningful benefits for the customers and the communities they serve. AccelDev is proud to support Centennial and Broadstreet in bringing this vision to life once again, and to work with Madison to ensure long-term reliability and lasting value. This project builds on a successful track record of collaboration, reinforcing our commitment to empowering the DG developer ecosystem.”
The Hollinswood Shopping Center project reinforces Broad Street’s dedication to deploying innovative, sustainable solutions across its portfolio.
