Arevon Energy hosted a groundbreaking event on Aug. 21 to celebrate the start of construction on the company’s Ratts 1 Solar Project in Indiana.

Located near the city of Petersburg in Pike County, Indiana, the 150-MW project will power the equivalent of approximately 24,000 Indiana homes when operational.

Local leaders, landowners, partners and stakeholders, the project’s construction contractor Primoris Renewable Energy, and the Arevon project team attended the groundbreaking ceremony.

Included among the speakers at the event was Kyle Brouillette, Senior Vice President, Market Operations and Planning at Indiana Municipal Power Agency.

“This project is an important part of our overall power supply portfolio. It is an Indiana resource and will aid IMPA in achieving our mission of bringing a low cost, reliable, and environmentally responsible power supply to our 61 member communities,” Brouillette said.

“When completed, Ratts 1 will contribute 150 MWac of renewable energy to IMPA's diverse power supply portfolio through a long-term power purchase agreement with Arevon,” IMPA said in a LinkedIn post.
