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.

Default message that will be sent to the Ohio Power Siting Board and key government officials: 

Dear OPSB Members,

I am writing to show my strong support for the Eastern Cottontail Solar Project (Case #24-0495-EL-BGN). The construction phase alone will generate over 500 jobs. This will be a tremendous boost for our local workforce.

Beyond the direct construction jobs, the project will create an estimated 270 indirect jobs across sectors such as local supply chains, hospitality, and transportation. These additional jobs will invigorate our local businesses, which are the backbone of Fairfield County’s economy. By investing in local resources, the project ensures that its positive economic impact extends far beyond the initial construction phase.

Furthermore, the project’s financial contributions to the county cannot be overstated. The $1.98 million in annual revenue for schools, public safety, and critical services will enhance the quality of life for our residents. These funds will provide better educational opportunities for our children and improved resources for our first responders. Approving this project is a clear path toward a brighter future for Fairfield County.

Sincerely,

CC:

Fairfield County Commissioners – Steve Davis, David Levacy, Jeff Fix
Walnut Township Trustees – Bill Yates, Terry Horn, Doug Leith
State Representative Jeff LaRe
State Senator Tim Schaffer
