Valerian Solar intends to apply for a special use permit with Will County to build a 4.5 megawatt solar energy facility located on the land east of 25157 S. Chicago Road in Elwood.
The property is west of Illinois 53 and South of W. Manhattan Rd. in Jackson Township. The total parcel will be a 43-acre fenced area with 24 acres for interconnection utilities with ComEd.
The project will generate 7.2 million kWh/year, enough to provide electricity to 990 homes, and estimated to serve 300-400 residences and 1-2 larger commercial subscribers.
