The co-op is open to people living in 12 counties in Southwest Ohio: Brown, Butler, Clark, Clermont, Clinton, Darke, Greene, Hamilton, Miami, Montgomery, Preble and Warren. It's free to join.

Cincinnati and its partners RE-volv, Solar United Neighbors and Faith Communities Go Green will recruit nonprofits to join this summer.

It will be the largest solar array in the city, says Ollie Kroner, director of the city’s Office of Environment and Sustainability.

Fairfield is breaking ground Monday on a five-acre solar array next to its wastewater treatment plant on Groh Lane.

Cincinnati planned to use the grant to build a community solar array on a former landfill site, giving low-income households a break on energy bills.

A draft ordinance with solar requirements could be ready as early as this summer.

Cincinnati's solar array has been powering both city operations and homes for half a year. The 100 megawatt solar farm in Highland County was completed in May.

Federal incentives are encouraging some Ohioans to go solar. But between tax credits and roof assessments, getting the pieces in place to make the switch isn't necessarily easy.

The city of Cincinnati purchased approximately 20 EVs in the past year, as part of a larger effort to reduce the environmental impact of city operations.

The 100 megawatt solar array in Highland County has been years in the making. It came fully online May 1.
