Developer outlook

Randolph County is a high-risk jurisdiction for utility-scale solar — documented ordinance hurdles are significant and approval history is mixed or unfavorable. The local regulatory environment has been trending more permissive over the past 12 months. Market saturation is elevated in this area — expect competition for prime land parcels and interconnection capacity.
