NextEra Energy's Skeleton Creek Solar Project in Oklahoma secured a reduced permit fee of $500,000, down from $2.5 million, after negotiations with state authorities. Farmers express concerns over property values and disruption from renewable energy developments.

The company faces opposition, including lawsuits from local residents arguing the project violates zoning laws. NextEra plans additional solar farms in the state, which has become a major site for renewable energy amid rising electricity demand.
