A Tipp City renewable energy company gained “an opportunity to shine light on its offerings close to its own backyard” with a recycling center’s solar project, the Dayton Daily News reports.

The solar system “is basically a small electric power plant” that produces “grid tied alternating current or A/C,” said Ray Davis, president of OGW Energy Resources.

David said the project will help reduce the center’s operating costs. For more, read the full article.
