Document Description
The Project will utilize approximately 666 acres of the approximately 886-acre Project site for construction of a solar energy facility. Construction is planned to begin in July 2025 and conclude in June 2026, lasting approximately 11 months. The Project would generate and store up to 80 megawatts alternating current (MWAC), for the purpose of delivering renewable electricity to the grid in a cost-competitive manner. The solar PV power generation facilities would include solar arrays and inverter blocks. The solar PV modules (i.e., panels) would convert solar energy into direct current (DC) electricity. By design, the solar PV panels absorb sunlight to generate electrical output.
