Toyota Boshoku America this week announced that it is collabrating with Sol Systems and Onyx Renewable Partners L.P. on a groundbreaking solar energy project here in Lawrence County. The project will power operations at the Toyota Boshoku Illinois LLC (TBIL) plant located east of Lawrenceville. The project will sit on approximately 17 acres near the TBIL facility and is expected to produce over 9.5 million kilowatt-hours in its first year of operation. That is enough to power around 880 homes for one year. In addition, the project will integrate pollinator-friendly plants at the location. The project is scheduled for completion in late 2024.
