(Moline, IL) -- The latest update on a project five years in the making was presented to Moline City Council last night.
A 25-acre solar farm capable of generating 5-megawatts of electricity would be located on city land south of the airport.
City staff say no city money would be spent on the project.
The goal would be to find a developer to build the solar farm, lease them the land, and have the array online within two years.
