About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

Collins Aerospace (RTX subsidiary) installed a 2.6 MW on-site solar farm at its Electric Power Systems facility in Rockford, Illinois. The 6.5-acre installation with 4,758 panels generates approximately 3.5 million kWh annually and supplies about 10% of the plant's electricity needs. Evidence: "This exciting new project will reduce the plant’s greenhouse gas emissions by more than 1,500 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually—that’s the equivalent of taking 375 gasoline-powered cars off the road for one year." — https://www.wifr.com/2024/04/26/collins-aerospace-breaks-ground-rockford-solar-farm/
