About

DESIGNING A SOLAR PROJECT WITH THE COMMUNITY IN MIND

Aviation Energy Center is a utility-scale solar project exploring siting options in the Xenia, Cedarville, and Miami Townships of Greene County, Ohio. As we consider locations and feedback, the team is committed to a range of 300 to 500 ft setbacks from Little Miami Watershed and its tributaries, any public road, residential property line, state park, or public land.

ENERGIZING THE ECONOMY


Aviation Energy Center is estimated to generate millions of dollars in additional tax revenue for Greene County over the project's 40-year lifespan, bringing new resources for schools, hospitals, and other public services. But the benefits to the community don't stop there. We are also committed to fostering local business growth through our Regional Business Partner Program, which will engage local companies in various aspects of the project. Aviation Energy Center will be working with local and regional partners when feasible, throughout the development process, and is seeking expression of interest from local companies and individuals. By aligning ourselves with local businesses, we aim to create a network of collaboration and shared success that extends far beyond the solar panels.

SOLAR POWER - CLEAN, AFFORDABLE ENERGY FROM THE SUN

SOLAR POWER - CLEAN, AFFORDABLE ENERGY FROM THE SUN

Harnessing the power of sunlight with solar panels generates sustainable electricity. Solar energy is clean, renewable, and abundant, without water usage or pollution. By integrating Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), we can optimize solar power and bolster the local electrical grid, ensuring enhanced strength, stability, and security. BESS acts as a bridge between daytime solar production and evening energy demand, providing a reliable supply of sustainable electricity for households and businesses alike.

SOLAR IS A GREAT NEIGHBOR

Solar energy is widely regarded as among the safest forms of utility-scale electricity generation. Solar panels are quiet, with few moving parts, and silicon-based solar panels contain no hazardous waste. Further, all utility-scale electric generation facilities are heavily regulated at the local, state, and federal level to ensure that they operate in a safe and reliable manner.

DESIGNING A SOLAR PROJECT WITH THE COMMUNITY IN MIND

Solar projects are carefully designed to produce as much clean energy as possible. Key considerations in the design and development process include the amount of sunlight an area typically gets, the availability of suitable land, and access to transmission lines. The layout of each project can take years to finalize and involves a team of engineers, environmental specialists, transmission experts, and development staff who engage with the local community to ensure the project is a success.
