Fort Atkinson City Council reallocates solar borrowing to wastewater plant repairs after consultant flags poor economics

Summary

Consultants from Donahue & Associates presented findings to the Fort Atkinson City Council on June 16, indicating that a proposed solar array at the wastewater treatment plant would have long payback periods and significant interconnection costs, making the project economically marginal. The same consultant recommended phased repairs for bio solids equipment. In response, the Council signaled that staff would reallocate previously borrowed solar funds toward plant rehabilitation instead.
