New research quantifies rural wind and solar economic impact
Original: New research quantifies local economic impact of rural wind and solar buildout
New research measures the local economic effects of wind and solar development in rural areas, quantifying how renewable energy buildout affects nearby communities. The findings give policymakers and landowners concrete figures on jobs, tax revenue and land-lease income tied to rural renewable projects, at a time when clean energy expansion continues to draw debate over its costs and benefits for small communities.
Why now: Ongoing debates over rural renewable energy projects are driving interest in hard data on their local economic effects.
