Paperwork was filed with the California Energy Commission to develop the project for installation in Kern County, California, a hotbed for solar and energy storage projects.
The installation brings Summit Ridge’s Maryland rooftop community solar portfolio to more than 75 MW.
The solar power facility signed a 25-year fixed price agreement to sell its electricity at roughly 8.9¢/kWh.
The projects are expected to reduce the city’s fossil fuel use for electricity by more than 80% by 2030.
Also on the rise: Duke agrees to new net metering rates, Ingeteam supplies inverters for BESS project, and Powin launches battery energy storage system.
The 300 MWAC solar and 150 MWAC/600 MWh battery energy storage system facility is being build in northwestern New Mexico.
The 20 MW/80 MWh grid-connected project is owned and operated by Hecate Energy and was built by Mitsubishi Power.
DEPCOM Power builds utility-scale solar power plants and manages ongoing operations, maintenance, and refurbishment services.
Also on the rise: NextEra Energy sells a 50% stake in a renewables portfolio for almost $850 million, and a discovery may lead to a big jump in perovskite solar cell efficiency.
The project is expected to evaluate time of use and real-time pricing signals, load shaping and shifting, and event-based demand response.
