In August 2022, GEO began a complete renovation of the system in collaboration with the State of Ohio Department of Administrative Services (DAS). The project was made possible by a $50,000 grant from the American Electric Power Foundation. Long-time GEO member companies Third Sun Kokosing Solar and Ecohouse Solar divided responsibility for designing and installing the system. Toledo Solar is donating the new Ohio-made panels. The old panels will be recycled by First Solar.

Our goal is for the clean energy industry to thrive in Ohio. For businesses large and small to thrive through the adoption of cost-effective energy solutions. For communities to thrive by embracing sustainability. For Ohio citizens to thrive in a healthy environment. And for Ohio students to thrive as they become the next generation of engineers, scientists, business leaders, and policymakers.
The purpose of this bill is to protect and expand Ohio’s vehicle manufacturing and supply chain industry by investing in and developing Ohio’s workforce for EV production, supporting the needs of industry members, growing the EV market, and sending a strong signal to the industry that Ohio is all in on EVs.
In this event, we explored important questions: What percentage of people in Ohio counties support renewable energy, why do they support it, and how does knowing this help you advocate for it?
