CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - A planned solar electric generating facility in West Virginia has cleared a regulatory hurdle.

The state Public Service Commission granted a siting certificate to Wild Hill Solar LLC, which plans to build a 92.5-megawatt facility on 795 acres of agricultural land in Jefferson County.

The PSC said in a news release that the power generated from the solar facility will be sold into a regional wholesale market.



The project is estimated to cost $125 million.
