Kentucky Public Service Commission Approves EKPC Sale of Solar Leases
The Kentucky Public Service Commission has approved a proposal that allows East Kentucky Power Cooperative Inc. (EKPC) to sell licenses to its customers for a solar panel farm planned in Clark County, Kentucky. The approved proposal allows EKPC’s customers to purchase a 25-year lease for one or more of the project’s 32,000 panels for a one-time payment of $460 per panel. Among other benefits, customers who decide to invest in this project will receive solar renewable energy credits that can be sold or retired.
