Installed capacity of 140 megawatts (MW)
Project overview
Wolf Run Solar will be 140-megawatts (MW) and located approximately six miles northwest of Jacksonville, Illinois in Morgan County. The solar park will complement the area’s agricultural resources with a constant flow of income to landowners and to the public in increased tax revenue from this stable cash crop.
Wolf Run Solar Park yields significantly in the form of payments to landowners, local spending, and annual community investment. Wolf Run Solar Park is also compatible with other land uses and provides a stable form of income to local landowners.
