This episode features the first of a two-part conversation with EDF Renewables development manager Jack Honor who is leading the Homer Solar project in Cortland County. Jack talks about EDF Renewable’s commitment to safety and the environment, the evolution of solar technology in recent years, the importance of solar energy in mitigating climate change, the benefits that the project will bring to the community — including more than 150 jobs and a source of income for local restaurants, hotels and businesses during the construction phase — as well as the longer term economic benefits the solar project will bring to the towns, school districts, fire departments and landowners in Cortland County.
