Township supervisors during a meeting on Wednesday, March 19, unanimously gave developers the green light for a new solar power generation facility following an extensive public hearing.
Cameron Schuler and Wesley Purinton of Colorado-based Korsail Energy presented plans for the 4.5 megawatt facility, which will be located in the area of 192 Burnside Road.
According to Schuler, the electricity generated by the new farm will be sold to WestPenn Power and is expected to supply enough energy for 200-300 homes each year.
