solar

Amazon now has five solar projects in Kentucky, including one that combines agriculture and renewable energy.

Applications for new utility scale solar projects have slowed in Ohio, partially due to a relatively new law called Senate Bill 52.

Part of the plan is to offer grants to residents for solar.

At its core, SB52 is about how Ohio approaches its energy future. It was crafted by Ohio Republicans who have historically been hesitant about adoption of renewable energy like wind and solar. Republican State Senator Bill Reineke, who represents seven rural counties in northwest Ohio, was one of the primary sponsors of the bill.

Ohio has a lot of cleared, flat land that has been used for farming over the past two hundred years. Most of that land also gets good sunshine. Those factors have caught the attention of companies who want to harvest that natural energy and sell it onto the power grid in the state's deregulated electricity market.
