隨著Wyandot縣新的太陽能發電站宣布落成，俄亥俄州進入了新一輪的太陽能光伏發電組件安裝競爭。
代頓電力照明公司（Dayton Power & Light Company）今天宣布其在在美國俄亥俄州西南部蒙哥馬利縣的洋基變電站（Yankee）的1.1兆瓦（MW）太陽能裝置安裝拉開序幕，其中包括了超過9,000塊來自夏普的太陽能電池組件，“揚基太陽電池陣”預計可產生足夠150戶家庭使用的電力。

    根據國家可再生能源的任務，到2025年，俄亥俄州25%的能量需來自來可再生資源 ――而且，這個數額的0.5個百分點應該是來自太陽的能源技術。

    Following the announcement of a new solar power plant in Wyandot County, Ohio, comes the completion of another solar thin-film installation ― the second the state has seen in as many weeks.

    Dayton Power & Light Company (DP&L), a utility, today announced the opening of a 1.1-megawatt (MW) solar installation at its Yankee substation in Montgomery County in southwestern Ohio. Comprised of over 9,000 thin-film solar modules from Sharp, the “Yankee Solar Array” is expected to generate enough electricity to power the equivalent of 150 homes.

    Under state renewable energy mandates, 25 percent of Ohio’s electricity is to come from renewable resources by 2025 ― and, of that amount, half a percent is supposed to come from solar energy technologies.
