This episode features a conversation with Jack Honor, Director of development for Grid Scale Power in New York for EDF Renewables, who provides an update on the 90 megawatt Homer Solar Energy Center located in the Towns of Homer, Cortlandville, and Solon in Cortland County. Hear about the project’s progress navigating the state’s Article 10 permitting process, the different types of local vegetation and pollinators that will be planted around the panels, how solar provides a steady source of income for participating farmers and landowners, and how the project will deliver hundreds of jobs and much-needed revenue to the community, including millions of dollars in direct payments to the Towns of Homer, Cortlandville, and Solon, Cortland County and associated school districts.
