A multimillion-dollar solar farm project is expected to generate large annual electric savings for the city of Presque Isle and nearby industrial companies who take part in the project. Minnesota-based National Renewable Solutions is developing plans for two solar farms at Skyway Industrial Park, each located on a 15-acre parcel of land near the airport. Construction should begin in late spring and be completed by the end of autumn. One of the company’s priorities was to not take land away from agricultural farms and companies or build on land that would require forestland to be cut.
