There do not appear to be any active anti-solar groups organized in the region. At the production of this report, the Cranberry Solar Project was not publicly announced so there are no groups specifically organized around this project. The developer can take steps to avoid opposition groups arising by lining up relevant FAQs about solar and producing economic and environmental impact studies or reports early in the process. These datapoints can help ease residents concerns before they manifest in unproductive ways. And while the decision-makers may be at the state-level because the project is on state lands (vs. a local governing body), the developer can engage grasstops influencers in the community to help secure their support early. Actively monitor Facebook and local opinion columns for indications the public opinion is shifting on the project.
