Large three-phase solar project underway near McGuffey
FROM ADA ICON - Erin Saal, associate renewable development staff member for Invenergy, updated Ada chamber members in late March on the Hardin Solar Development project in the McGuffey area.
“The project is a solar power generation facility of up to 300 megawatts (MW), targeted to begin operating in 2023," she said.
"Solar technology uses the sun to deliver energy and is now one of the lowest-cost energy sources available,” she said.
Adding that, “The Hardin Solar III Energy Center is an opportunity to boost the local economy of Hardin County and create jobs, all while generating clean, American-made energy to meet Ohio's growing electricity demand.”
Invenergy will sell the energy produced from the solar center to Dominion Energy.
Invenergy is a privately-held developer and operator of sustainable energy. Based in the U.S., has developed more than 170 projects, totalling over 27,700 megawatts ranging from wind, solar natural gas and advanced energy storage projects.
