TVA is hosting a virtual public open house on May 23, 2022, to present information about the proposed Moore County Solar project and the Draft Environmental Impact Statement and to respond to questions from the public.

To meet customer demand for renewable energy, TVA entered into a power purchase agreement with SR Tullahoma LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Silicon Ranch Corporation, to purchase 200 megawatts of solar power generated by the proposed solar photovoltaic facility, contingent upon the completion of an environmental review. 

Moore County Solar would be located on approximately 2,000 acres within an approximately 3,463-acre project site in Moore County, Tennessee. SR Tullahoma LLC would construct, operate, maintain, and eventually decommission Moore County Solar. A substation and facilities to interconnect the solar PV facility to the TVA Franklin-Wartrace No. 2 161-kilovolt (kV) transmission line (TL), as well as upgrades on approximately 9.6 miles of this TL, would also be required to operate the solar facility.

Between April 22-June 6, 2022, TVA will seek public comments on a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the purchase of electricity generated by the proposed Moore County Solar project in Moore County, Tennessee.
