Benefits
Community
New Frontiers Solar Park yields significant economic benefits to the community in the form of payments to landowners, local spending, and annual community investment.
New Frontiers represents a capital investment of $310 million+ and will disperse millions in property tax payments to local governments and school districts over the life of the project. The project will create hundreds of full-time equivalent jobs during construction as well as multiple permanent jobs. Through the project’s lifecycle, millions of dollars will be spent within 50 miles of the solar park.

Landowners
New Frontiers Solar Park will be compatible with other land uses and will provide a stable form of income to local landowners. Approximately $56 million will be paid to the solar park’s landowners through the life of the project.
