Why
Gibson County?
How Origis Approaches
Siting
As we approached the region for a solar farm, we chose a location CAREFULLY AND THOUGHTFULLY. Origis solar projects are located near existing energy infrastructure, where they can best benefit the electric grid.
Project development teams consider the area’s solar resources, evaluate potential environmental impacts and find landowners who want to sell or lease their land for the project.
Through careful planning and site engineering SOLAR FACILITIES MAKE GOOD NEIGHBORS.

Solar
Resources
Indiana has significant sun resources – much of the same sun that helps the local agricultural industry. Gibson County is a part of a state with great solar resources.
2
Energy
Demand
In Indiana, renewable energy development is fueled by the state’s goal of reaching net neutral carbon emissions by 2050.

Energy
Infrastructure
The project features access to nearby transmission lines, which lowers the cost of the energy produced and allows the project to serve homes and businesses through-out the region.
4
Environmental
Evaluation
Wetlands, streams and critical habitats are documented and carefully avoided. Sites are chosen to protect viewsheds for surrounding neighbors and communities.
5
Cultural
If cultural resources are identified, sensitive artifacts are left untouched.

Eager
Property Owners
Engage large private property owners who are eager to lease or sell their land.
