Marlboro County weighs solar moratorium alongside tax incentive deals
Original: Marlboro County considers solar moratorium while pursuing tax incentives for two projects
Marlboro County, South Carolina, is weighing a temporary moratorium on new solar developments while simultaneously pursuing tax incentives for two planned solar projects. Officials are reportedly trying to balance resident concerns about the pace of solar expansion with the economic benefits the two projects could bring. The discussion is unfolding as the county reviews how it regulates large-scale solar facilities.
Why now: Local officials' split approach to solar development raises questions about the county's energy and economic strategy.
