The Kentucky General Assembly has approved legislation pertaining to the establishment of solar farms across the Commonwealth. Murray Senator Jason Howell said the measure focuses on permitting and regulating the grouping of solar panels, especially in areas of local development. He was asked if this law could impact the pace of constructing new solar farm sites.
“The limitations of our power grid are gonna slow the production of our solar farms. This is a process to work through itself out. If anything it might make it quicker because there’s a set of guardrails and guidelines that didn’t exist before,” said Howell.
