State approves Gorham Twp. solar farm By David J. Coehrs - dcoehrs@aimmediamidwest.com More than a year after the initial request, the Ohio Siting Power Board (OSPB) has approved construction of a 107-megawatt solar farm in Gorham Township. The board on April 15 granted Arche Energy Project a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need to build a solar-powered electric generating facility on 675 private acres. The schedule calls for parent company 7x.Energy to begin construction of Arche Solar Farm in late 2021 and the project to be operational one year later. Construction will include operation and maintenance buildings, solar panels, access roads, electric lines, a substation, and other equipment installation. When completed, the facility is expected to generate approximately 220,000 megawatt-hours of electricity annually, and to deliver power to an existing Fayette-area substation close to the intersection of County Road 23 and U.S. 20.
