Savion LLC says Indiana Michigan Power (I&M), an working firm of American Electric Power, entered right into a power buy settlement (PPA) to obtain the entire output of renewable solar power from the Elkhart County Solar Project in Indiana.
Located in Benton Township, the Elkhart County Solar Project is projected to be a 100 MW AC solar energy era facility constructed on roughly 850 acres of land.
Estimated to start manufacturing in late 2025, the brand new solar power facility will likely be Savion’s first venture to interrupt floor in Indiana.
“Indiana Michigan Power is pleased to work with Savion to provide more clean energy for our customers,” says Steve Baker, I&M president and chief working officer. “[The] Elkhart County Solar Project will play an important role in I&M’s continued transition to cleaner, more diverse energy sources to best serve our customers, the environment and the economies of the communities we serve.”
In September 2022, Elkhart County Commissioners accepted a rezoning software and the financial growth settlement for Elkhart County Solar Project. The venture is at the moment advancing by the positioning diligence section.
Elkhart County Solar Project is the second PPA between American Electric Power Company subsidiaries and a Savion-developed solar venture.
