What have you been told about solar?
People say clean energy can’t produce enough power. Others say only liberals and hippies support it. They’re wrong.
Solar energy is supported by 70% of Ohio conservatives. Farmers produce it on their land to bring in new revenue, offset costs, and power their businesses. These are our neighbors. People who work for a living. Hippies? Hardly.
What else have you heard?
“Solar Will Poison the Groundwater”
Wrong. There’s nothing inside a solar panel that can leak into the ground.
“It’s a Fire Hazard”
No more than any other structure. And, money produced by solar generation goes directly to fire, police, and first responders.
“They’ll Damage Drain Tiles”
There’s laws and penalties against that.
“Bird Habitats Could Be Harmed”
Birds don’t live in corn or soybean fields. Farmers keep them away with traditional methods of netting, cannons and sound devices.
“Crime Will Increase”
Criminals aren’t looking to steal solar panels.
“Taxpayers Will Foot the Bill for Solar Development”
Solar generates tens of thousands of dollars every year for local schools and other government services.
“PILOT Programs Are Tax Giveaways”
PILOT programs guarantee payments to local governments for up to 30 years.
