The Project

The project began its journey in early 2018, obtained Ohio Power Siting Board (OPSB) approval in January 2021, and began construction in December 2022. Madison Fields Solar Project reached commercial operation in January 2024.

Output from the project is enough energy to power the equivalent of approximately 38,000 Ohio homes annually over its 35-40 year lifespan.

Agrivoltaics

Between The Rows (BTR), a collaboration between Savion and The Ohio State University, received a Department of Energy (DOE) Farms grant at the end of 2023 to investigate the validity of growing forage crops (hay, alfalfa, and some cover crops) between the rows on Madison Fields. Included in the study: complementary grazing and precision ag solutions, as well as understanding soil health and biodiversity.
