County designates tax zones for battery storage
Body
HENDERSON COUNTY–After a public hearing, Henderson County Commissioners’ Court voted Dec. 12 to approve applications for the designation of two planned battery storage facilities in the county as Tax Reinvestment Zones. The court learned the facilities are designed to alleviate strain on the state’s power grid.
County Judge Wade McKinney said the Tanzanite Storage site is 12 acres in size while the BT McGee Solar site encompasses 20 acres. The next step in two weeks is the finalization of the agreements, the county judge said.
