A large-scale solar project is being planned in Wise County thanks to a $500,000 grant from a program focused on reclaiming and developing abandoned mine sites.
The Nature Conservancy, Sun Tribe, and Sol Systems will pursue the development of some of the first utility-scale solar projects on former coal mines in the region.
Five different sites in Wise County are designated to become utility-scale solar farms over the next few years.
