Last Saturday I heard Hannah Solar had completed the Wiregrass Solar
plant installation in Valdosta.
Today
Col. Ricketts confirmed that.
Congratulations, Industrial Authority, Wiregrass Solar LLC,
and Hannah Solar!
The first slide shows the location of the solar plant,
which is
in the back of Valdosta’s Mud Creek Water Treatment Plant
on Water Plant Road off of GA 94 (New Statenville Highway).
Where there used to be just a bare field, it’s now covered with solar panels.
The current holdup is
waiting for Georgia Power to connect the panels
to the grid.
After that, they just need to schedule a commissioning ceremony.
Col. Ricketts said they’d discuss that “later”.
Here’s the video:
