Solar power in Kentucky
Solar power in Kentucky has been growing in recent years due to new technological improvements and a variety of regulatory actions and financial incentives, particularly a 30% federal tax credit, available through 2016, for any size project.[3] A 2 MW single axis tracking solar farm began operation in 2011 in Bowling Green.[7] In 2015, Fort Campbell installed a 1.9MW solar farm that provides 10% of the electricity used by the base.Participation is limited to 1% of utilities peak demand the prior year.[10] The Kentucky Solar Energy Society is lobbying to increase the limit, noting that 17 states allow at least 2 MW capacity to use net metering.
