As the city moves away from using coal as a source of energy, Lake Worth Beach is also set to receive even more solar power at the completion of the next solar facility in the Florida Municipal Solar Project, expected to be completed by the end of 2025.

“This is going to begin to displace natural gas-based power, and largely coal power,” Liberty said. “Coal is a dirtier fuel. We’re going to reap the benefits of having a cleaner portion of our portfolio.”

Former President Barack Obama waged war on the coal industry so he could replace it with green energy. And that's what they did in Lake Worth Beach.
