Rye Development reaches key milestone for Kentucky project
Rye Development has submitted a Final License Application to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for the Lewis Ridge Pumped Storage Project—a 266-megawatt pumped storage facility sited on former mine lands in southeastern Kentucky. In addition to creating more than 2,300 construction jobs, the project is poised to deliver substantial economic benefits to the local community—both during construction and for decades to come.
