Highlander Solar Project | Project Details

5

• sPower’s projects utilize photovoltaic (PV) panel technology

• Pole-mounted panels require less grading and minimize long-term impacts to project sites

• Panels will be approximately 5 – 7 feet in height

• Project will have a minimum 50’ setback from property line

• Project will be fenced and monitored 24 hours a day and 7 days a week
