Newcomerstown is one of the first communities in Tuscarawas County to utilize solar energy. Mayor Patrick Cadle was instrumental in implementing this project on the land next to the water treatment and sewage treatment plants which consume the majority of the Village's energy.
Ground-Mounted Solar Array
Newcomerstown, Ohio
Verde Solutions worked closely with Mayor Patrick Cadle to design a ground-mounted solar array to meet the village’s sustainability goals and significantly lower energy costs. By utilizing a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement, there were zero upfront costs for this project. With this project's successful installation, Newcomerstown is hoping that other neighboring communities and towns will follow suit.

Our projects with Verde Solutions will create a funding stream that will help Newcomerstown rebuild its infrastructure and improve our employees' wages and standard of living. Yes, it will lower our electric bills, but it will be a catalyst for change not just for our community but for many other communities around us who see its success.
