Solar Developer Storke
Due In Laurens Tonight
LAURENS – Ryan Storke, president of Storke Renewables LLC, confirmed today he intends to brief the Laurens Town Board at 7 this evening on plans for a 4-miles-square solar farm on 3,000 acres in West Laurens.
In an exclusive article Jan. 16-17 in Hometown Oneonta & The Freeman’s Journal, West Laurens neighbors said they were being offered leases of $1,000 per acre per year to participate in what would be one of the largest solar projects in the state. The installation would feed electricity into the nearby Marcy South line to serve the New York Metropolitan area.
Storke is a SUNY Morrisville graduate who is planning a similar project in the towns of Concord and Sardinia, near Geneseo.
