Bringing solar energy to Jackson County
Arevon is partnering with local landowners to develop Big Muddy Solar, a 95-megawatt photovoltaic solar project on privately owned land in Jackson County.
Big Muddy Solar would generate enough clean energy to power more than 14,000 Illinois homes. The project will provide local economic development and tax revenues while creating new pollinator-friendly habitat.
Our team will work with community members and officials to align the project with the long-term goals and interests of Jackson County.
