Document Description
Project would install and operate two 20 MW solar PV energy-generating facilities. The project would utilize solar photovoltaic (PV) energy-generating facilities. The project would utilize solar photovoltaic (PV) modules mounted on fixed tilt structures or single-axis tracking systems. Electricity generated by the project would be delivered to the Southern CA Edison (SCE) utility grid by an approx. 2-mile generation-tie (gen-tie) line. The gen-tie would run from the northwest corner of the project site to SCE Windhub Substation on Oak Creek Road, which is located approx. 1 mile north of the project site. The project consists of two non-contiguous sites (Windhub Solar A and Windhub Solar B) that are located approx. 0.5 mile apart. Windhub Solar A comprises privately owned parcels totaling approx. 144 acres, and will require approval of a Conditional Use Permit. Windhub Solar B is located on an approx. 160 acre parcel owned by the CA State Lands Commission.
