Duke buys 226 MW Texas solar farm from Canadian Solar – “Duke Energy Renewables is expanding its solar energy portfolio by acquiring the 200 MWac/ 266-megawatt peak Rambler solar project from Recurrent Energy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canadian Solar. The project will be located in Tom Green County, Texas and is expected to achieve commercial operation in mid-2020. The energy generated from the Rambler solar project will be sold to a customer under a 15-year agreement. The 200-MWac project will utilize more than 733,000 of Canadian Solar’s high efficiency bi-facial BiKu modules across approximately 1,700 acres west of San Angelo, Texas. Rambler will power the equivalent of 40,000 homes, and Duke Energy Renewables will provide long-term operations and maintenance services to the project… The project is expected to employ 400 workers at peak construction.” Source: Canadian Solar
