Project Info

Title

Big Rock 2 Cluster Solar and Storage Project

Description

The proposed project involves the construction of a utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) solar and battery energy storage (BESS) facility on approximately 1,849 acres of privately-owned land. The project would generate up to a combined 500 megawatt (MW) of alternating current (AC) on a daily basis and up to 500 MW of battery storage. Energy generated by the project would be collected using up to 66 kilovolt (kV) collector lines which could run overhead and/or underground to a dedicated project substation. A 230-kV overhead generation intertie (gen-tie) transmission line is anticipated to link the project substation to the existing Liebert Switchyard, which will then be connected via an overhead 230-kV gen-tie line to the existing Mandrapa Switchyard and the San Diego Gas and Electric (SDG&E) Imperial Valley Substation.
