Caldwell Solar Project
In development
The Caldwell Solar Project is an up to 200 megawatt (MW) solar photovoltaic electric generating facility proposed to be located in Caldwell County, Kentucky (the “Project”). The Project will span approximately 3,060 acres and will connect to Caldwell County to Barkley 161 kV transmission line. The Project is anticipated to positively impact both the local economy and environment by producing significant tax revenue and other economic benefits for the area, and offsetting carbon dioxide emissions by an estimated 306,000 metric tons each year – the equivalent of taking approximately 66,000 cars off the road.
Project Benefits
~$240,000* in local tax revenue generated per year
~306,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions offset per year
66,000 the equivalent number of cars removed from the road every year
