Tennessee Coop to Connect New Solar Facility
Chickasaw Electric Cooperative, a Tennessee-based coop, is set to connect the new West Tennessee Solar Farm to the Tennessee Valley Authority with its distribution lines. The coop has upgraded seven miles of its distribution lines and added two additional miles to connect the 4.5-megawatt solar facility to the regional power grid. The project is estimated to have cost the coop $31 million, and the interconnection was completed 11 weeks ahead of schedule. Click here for more details.
