Located in Meigs County, the 48 MW project was built in the Great Bend of the Ohio River, near the state line with West Virginia. Doral Renewables commissioned PCL Construction to build the project in April 2024.
“We are very pleased to be able to commercially operate this facility,” said Amit Nadkarni, SVP of project and asset management at Doral. “As demand for electricity continues to rise, this facility will provide reliable and affordable energy needed to maintain the stability of the electric grid and keep our communities running.”
A project of this magnitude could provide power to more than 9,000 American homes and is expected to contribute more than $400,000 in new tax revenue to Meigs County annually to support essential local services.
“We are grateful for the support of the local community and our partners who helped bring this vision to life,” Nadkarni said.
