Last month, Ohio regulators voted without dissent to approve a permit for a solar-and-storage project at the Hamden Energy site in Vinton County. The development, described as a coal-to-solar conversion, will include 149 MW of solar panels and 149 MW of battery storage.
According to Canary Media, the decision is an uncommon success for clean energy in Ohio, and it stands in contrast to most other projects mentioned in the report. The site is located in the southeastern quadrant of the state.
The source does not provide further details about the project's ownership or timeline. As there is only one source, no conflicting accounts are available.
