    EAST WINDSOR, Conn. (WTNH) — The state’s largest solar farm in East Windsor will provide energy to 12,000 homes and local businesses when complete this fall.

    The project was funded by the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act and leverages tax credits. It’s considered the largest investment in energy and climate in the nation’s history.

    Tuesday, Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) saw it for himself.

    “And what this is doing is creating a lot of jobs in Connecticut,” he said. “It is cleaning up the environment and it’s lowering costs.”

    Murphy said the business who contract with the solar farm will save 15% to 20% on energy bills.
