TCTC board decides against participating in proposed $8M Solar Planet project

CHAMPION — The Trumbull Career & Technical Center board of directors has decided against participating in a proposed $8 million Solar Planet project.

The project would have resulted in the Columbus-based company Solar Planet installing solar-collection panels on 10 acres of 30 acres of farmland on the south side of the school property near the state Route 5 Bypass.

The school would not have paid for the equipment but would have paid Solar Planet for most of its electricity under a 25-year agreement.

The panels would have generated most of the power the school uses, according to Solar Planet.
