Fight for Ohio’s clean energy future.
Ohio Solar United is dedicated to mobilizing supporters of solar in the Buckeye State.
Solar development in Ohio has the potential to produce clean, affordable energy, create tens of thousands of good-paying, local jobs for Ohioans, generate hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue for schools, police departments, and critical local services, reduce our reliance on foreign energy, and protect farmland.
But it is under attack by misinformation, aimed deliberately at disrupting new projects to stop our nation’s energy transition.
Add your name now to tell the Ohio Power Siting Board that you support solar. Your signature will make a difference!
Default message that will be sent to the Ohio Power Siting Board and key government officials:
Dear Ohio Power Siting Board, I am writing in support of the Eastern Cottontail Solar Project (Case #24-0495-EL-BGN). This project offers numerous benefits to Fairfield County, from job creation to long-term financial gains. The solar project will create more than 500 construction jobs, with an emphasis on hiring Ohio residents. This influx of jobs will provide a welcome boost to the local economy, helping many families in our community thrive. In addition to job creation, the project will generate significant revenue for our local schools, police, and fire departments, totaling nearly $2 million annually. This funding will directly benefit our community by enhancing public services, increasing safety, and supporting our education system. The positive economic impact will extend well beyond the initial construction phase, providing long-lasting benefits for Fairfield County residents. Furthermore, the project promotes energy independence by generating clean, American-made energy. This not only benefits our local economy but also helps increase our energy independence – keeping more money local and in state. For these reasons, I fully support the approval of the Eastern Cottontail Solar Project. Thank you for considering my support,
