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.
3
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.
