A new solar project to help a northwest Arkansas school district was announced this week by Ozarks Electric Cooperative.

The utility is partnering with Springdale Public Schools and Today’s Power Inc. to build a 2.4 megawatt solar plant near the Sonora Middle School in Springdale, a city located near Fayetteville.

The plant will offset about 95% of the total energy used by the school according to a report by Talk, Business and Politics.
