About South Branch Solar Project

South Branch Solar is proposing a 129 MWac solar farm located in Hancock County, Ohio. The Project will produce solar-powered electricity that will maximize energy production from available solar resources to deliver clean, renewable electricity to the Ohio transmission system, serving the needs of electric utilities and their customers.

South Branch Solar will provide a stable, long-term economic benefit to the area. The localities will benefit from increased tax revenues paid throughout the project life. Host communities typically experience increased economic activity for local businesses and opportunities for new jobs – with the largest direct impact on employment during the Project’s construction phase.

South Branch Solar will consist of photovoltaic (PV) panels and infrastructure to connect the Project to the local substation.

The electricity generated by the Project will be transferred to the transmission grid operated by PJM Interconnection, LLC for sale at market pricing or under a power purchase agreement.

In coordination with the complainant, South Branch Solar will work to address complaints effectively and efficiently toward a resolution as satisfactory as possible to all parties involved.

If a complaint is received during the construction phase, the construction manager or the construction manager’s designee will be responsible for initiating review. If a complaint is received during the operations phase, O&M staff will be responsible for initiating review. In either instance, if the complaint cannot be resolved at this level, the construction manager or the O&M staff will refer the complaint to the Project owners for review and resolution.

All complaints received will be reviewed to determine whether the complaint is regarding a violation of laws/regulations (federal, state or local) and/or permit conditions associated with permits issued for the Project.

South Branch Solar is committed to responding to comments within 24 to 72 hrs of receipt, either addressing the comment or communicating with the complainant regarding the timeframe for resolving the complaint.
