Valdosta Mayor John Fretti remarked
at the Wiregrass Solar groundbreaking 21 Feb 2011:
"...solar is an important component of our electricity needs and our power energy needs, and that it will continue to be. We need to take into consideration all renewable energy resources such as solar, and wind, and bio, and bring those together to eventually make them more efficient and effective to supply our grid with energy sources."He also talked about eventual lower rates to the customers. And he bragged about how big it is:
"I think currently the largest array... in Georgia"Um, no, Dalton, Georgia already has a 365kW solar array installed and in use, although that information never seems to get through the VLCIA filter.

Still, it's a start, and I congratulate VLCIA on doing it.
