Construction of the Sky High Solar Farm is expected to begin in summer 2024.

The project would offer economic, social, and environmental benefits to the State of New York, Onondaga County and to the Town of Tully, and would:

  • Create approximately 50 jobs during construction
  • Create long-term jobs to support operations
  • Boost local economy and add commerce for local businesses during the construction and the operation
  • Provide significant tax revenues to the Town of Tully, Onondaga County and to the local school district
  • Provide quiet, emission free, reliable power to NYS
  • Help NYS achieve its goal of 70% clean power generation by 2030
