Mercer County solar farm

Fresno County is set to expand its solar energy production with the Luna Valley Solar project, which will generate 200 megawatts of power, enough to supply over 80,000 homes annually. The project, developed by Clearway Energy Group, has secured $700 million in financing and has contracts with San Diego Gas & Electric and Southern California Edison. Meanwhile, ITP Development Pty Ltd is proposing a solar farm near Quirindi, Australia, that could power 2,150 homes with an investment of $8.67 million, utilizing land that can still support agricultural activities. In Kent, Renewable Connections Ltd has submitted plans for a solar farm that could supply power to 6,000 homes, while maintaining the ability to graze sheep on the site. Additionally, a zoning hearing in Mercer County is set to determine the fate of a solar farm proposal from Sunrise Diamond Road LLC, which has faced initial permit denial. The area is becoming increasingly popular for solar energy initiatives, signaling a growing trend toward renewable energy development.
