Hoosier Solar is committed to responsible solar farm development.

Hoosier Solar is a different kind of solar developer. As an organization, we always work to include neighbors in the process, exceed state and local setbacks, preserve the landscape, and work closely with local leadership to make sure that our tax or economic development payments meet local needs. We aim to be true community partners in the Hoosier counties we work in rather than just investors.

That’s why we’re working together with landholders and farmers, local residents, and community members to help power our communities and leave a strong legacy for future generations.

Remembering Tim O’Hara

Tim O’Hara was a passionate leader for Energy Systems Network and worked in the energy industry for over 25 years. A devoted husband, father, friend and colleague, we remember Tim for both his friendliness and his tenacity. Our efforts would not be possible without his guidance and leadership, and he is deeply missed by the Hoosier Solar family.
