US renewable energy developer sPower has decided not to refile an application with the Ohio Power Siting Board for the 200MW Seneca wind farm.
The company said it will put the project on hold for an undetermined period until the next steps are defined.
Seneca would have comprised 77 turbines across 10,117 hectares in the Scipio, Reed, Venice, Eden and Bloom Townships in Seneca County, Ohio.
Last year, sPower withdrew its application to the board for the wind farm due to an error it had discovered in the Determination of No Hazard permit it received from the Federal Aviation Administration.
Because of the error the permit was cancelled and the company said it would refile an application once a new permit had been issued, but has now decided not to refile.
SPower chief executive Ryan Creamer said: “We would like to thank our landowners and other community partners who have supported this project over the years, even before our acquisition.
“We hope to do more work in Ohio in the future, but at this time, we are making the difficult choice to place our resources in other states where there is a greater potential for success.”
