News release from Indiana Michigan Power:<\/p>\n

I&M breaks ground on first solar generation facility<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

(July 24, 2015) – Indiana Michigan Power (I&M), an operating unit of American Electric Power (NYSE: AEP), broke ground today on its first solar generation facility.<\/p>\n

The facility will consist of about 10,000 solar panels on about 17 acres of ground just south of Marion, Indiana, adjacent to an I&M service center. The facility will have a capacity of 2.5 megawatts and is expected to begin generating energy by the end of this year.<\/p>\n

The Deer Creek solar facility is the first to be owned and operated by I&M and its parent company, AEP. “This is truly an historic day for I&M and for Marion,” said Paul Chodak III, President and Chief Operating Officer of Indiana Michigan Power. “Adding this clean, renewable energy further diversifies I&M’s generation portfolio, and it is an important step toward recognizing the increasing preferences of our customers, our company and our government for green energy.”<\/p>\n

The Marion facility is one of four solar facilities that will generate up to about 15 megawatts of energy for I&M by the end of 2016.<\/p>\n

“Together, these facilities will provide I&M an opportunity to gain valuable experience in the design and construction of utility-scale solar projects,” Chodak said. “They will enable I&M to become proficient in operating solar generation and integrating it reliably into the energy delivery grid. This knowledge will be of use to I&M and its customers as we move toward adding utility-scale solar in the coming years.”<\/p>\n

Marion is an appropriate location for I&M to deploy cutting edge technology. More than a century ago, a transmission line was built to connect Marion’s local utility with Muncie’s – the first interconnection between electric utilities in the nation. Those two utilities were among the first the newly formed American Gas and Electric, AEP’s forerunner, purchased in 1907.<\/p>\n

I&M contracted with an Indiana company, Inovateus Solar of South Bend, to design and build the facility. Construction is expected to begin within a few weeks. The panels are expected to generate the most energy when it is needed most – during hot, sunny summer days.<\/p>\n

Later this year, I&M expects to begin construction on a second facility in Mishawaka. Facilities are also planned west of South Bend and near Watervliet, Mich.<\/p>\n
