Oregon Trail Electric Co-op's Community Solar program offers members an affordable and sustainable way to access solar energy, reducing their carbon footprint without needing to install panels on their property.

In 2022, OTEC completed construction on a community solar project in La Grande.

This program (farm) harnesses natural energy from the sun and when done at a utility scale, it is more competitive than installing a solar system at your home or business.

Participating in the output is completely voluntary and is being offered as a opportunity for those OTEC member-owners who want solar as part of their daily energy mix.

The solar farm is located along Highway 30 in La Grande, near OTEC's Ladd Substation.

If you are interested, please call OTEC at 541-523-3616.
