A Clean Economic Opportunity for Madison and Franklin Counties

Springwater Solar offers a new source of economic development with long-term local and state tax revenue for schools, government services, and public infrastructure. The power from Springwater Solar will be delivered into the local Ohio electrical grid, helping to diversify the state's energy portfolio.
