Treaty Oak Clean Energy, in addition to local officials, leaders of economic development and community leaders, celebrated the ceremonial groundbreaking of the 100-MW Redfield Solar Project in Grant County, Arkansas. The energy of the project will be purchased by a single off-track via a long-term sales agreement.
The Redfield Solar Project will expand the power generation capacity of Arkansas at a time when affordable, reliable electricity for companies and families is more critical than ever. By diversifying the energy mix of the state, the project will offer cost -effective, reliable strength and at the same time stimulate economic growth in the local community.
“This project is much more than a solar facility,” said Chris Elrod, co-founder and CEO of Treaty Oak Clean Energy. “It is an important investment in the people, companies and the future of Grant County. From the start, our goal was to be a good neighbor – to work closely with provincial leaders, local companies and residents to ensure that this project benefits the entire community. “
Primoris will lead the construction, with high -voltage services that Dashiell Corp. are supplied.
“We are happy to welcome Treaty Oak Clean Energy to grant the province for this important project,” said Grant County Judge Randy Pruert. “Their investment will result in a steady tax revenue that will go to determining roads, strengthening our schools and maintaining essential services for our community.”
As part of its dedication to the community, Treaty Oak presented a donation of $ 100,000 to the granting of district library director Jessica Reeves and Judge Pruits to support the renovation of the Grant County Library.
Priority to materials from Arkansas
The Redfield Solar Project will include materials manufactured by Arkansas, strengthen the local supply chains and maximize the economic benefits throughout the state. The steel for the advanced Nexpracker NX Horizon-XTR site-following solar tracker systems will come from the Big River Steel Mill from US Steel in Osceola, while important components such as connectors and harnesses are supplied by Premier PV in Crossett.
“By buying materials from Arkansas, we support the local industries and workforce that make such projects possible,” said Chris Elrod, CEO of Treaty Oak Clean Energy. “This investment shows our dedication to the economy of the state and the long -term benefits that can provide the development of clean energy to communities.”
