Proposed Portage County solar farm expects to begin approval process this fall

Doral Renewables has about 8,500 acres under contract for the project, known as the Vista Sands Solar Project, said Eric Callisto of the law firm Michael Best & Friedrich. The law firm is acting as an outside council for Doral on the project. The proposed project will produce approximately 1,200 megawatts of power, which would be enough electricity to serve up to 250,000 homes.
