New York approved a large solar project in Glen, sparking debate over farmland loss and local control.
The New York State Office of Renewable Energy Siting approved the 250-megawatt Mill Point Solar I Project in Glen, a Repsol-owned solar facility on over 2,000 acres near Auriesville, expected to power 33,724 homes and cut 217,280 metric tons of carbon annually.
While state officials highlight job creation, tax revenue, and clean energy progress, local residents, farmers, and officials oppose the project, citing farmland loss, threats to rural character, and concerns over the state overriding local land-use laws, including Montgomery County’s cumulative impact rule.
Critics argue the approval process was flawed and legally questionable, with the town and county planning potential legal action.
