Indiana's massive solar farm will power 200,000 homes

A 1.3-gigawatt solar farm in Indiana, developed by Doral Renewables and built by Bechtel, will power 200,000 homes and significantly increase the state's solar capacity. Bechtel will construct three segments of the Mammoth Solar project, installing approximately two million solar panels and creating over 1,200 jobs. The project aims to boost Indiana's solar capacity by more than 20% upon its completion in 2027. The project will integrate agrivoltaics, allowing for livestock grazing and crop cultivation alongside the solar panels. Bechtel's experience includes the Ivanpah solar power plant, a large project that recently faced operational changes.
