LOCAL ECONOMIC IMPACT
These investments will bring direct, long-term economic value to Jackson County. The projects will generate millions in tax revenue over their lifecycle to support Jackson County and local schools, while creating opportunities for local businesses and workforce.
LOCALLY GENERATED ENERGY
Home-grown energy strengthens grid reliability by producing power close to where it’s used, reducing strain on transmission infrastructure and supporting long-term energy stability. Our Jackson County energy projects can generate enough electricity to power more than 200,000 homes annually, helping meet growing demand with dependable, domestic supply.
Land Restoration and Protection
We are committed to responsible stewardship of historical farmland. A comprehensive land and water management plan is being developed to protect surrounding resources and maintain site stability throughout the life of the project. Sheep grazing and pollinator habitat options are being explored to manage the vegetation on site, which would bring additional environmental benefits to Jackson County.
