Ross County Solar Project

120 MW Solar

The Ross County Solar Project is a 120 megawatt (MW) solar development located in Ross County, Ohio which will span approximately 1,300 acres and will be connected to a new switching station on the AC2-060 transmission line. The project is anticipated to positively impact the local economy by producing tax revenue, jobs and contributions through a charitable fund. Ross County Solar is also estimated to offset approximately 160,900 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually during operations – the equivalent of taking an estimated 35,800 cars off the road every year.
