Harvesting the Kentucky Sunshine to Power Economic Development.
Located in the heart of Kentucky’s covered bridge country, the Fleming County Solar Project represents a forward-looking energy initiative being advanced by ACCIONA.
The Fleming County Solar Project is designed to contribute to the local community by supporting economic activity and generating long-term tax revenue over its operational life. ACCIONA is committed to integrating the project thoughtfully within the local landscape while maintaining strong relationships with community stakeholders.
Whenever possible, priority will be given to local businesses, contractors, and service providers during both the construction and operational phases, helping to ensure that the project delivers meaningful local benefits.
Through careful planning and collaboration, the project aims to become a valuable addition to Fleming County’s energy and economic landscape for years to come.
