The facility will be located 90 miles east of Seattle, in Kittitas County. “With this decision, Kittitas County is in the forefront of the nation’s new renewable energy industry,” says Howard Trott, TSR’s Managing Director. “TSR’s vision to generate green jobs and energy is now a reality, and it marks the start of a new future for Kittitas County and Washington state.”
Besides generating clean energy, TSR says it will bring more than 200 construction jobs and 35 permanent jobs to an economically depressed community The project will also produce a revenue stream of more than $97 million in purchases of goods and services during construction, and more than $1.5 million annually in property tax revenues to support local schools, roads and hospitals.
