Consumers Energy seeks landowners for siting utility scale solar in Michigan
The utility seeks farm fields, brownfield sites, and publicly owned properties ranging from about 500 to 900 acres as it plans to add 8 GW of solar by 2040.
Approximately 858 GWdc of solar and over 1 TWh of batteries are in development
Government research shows that solar-plus-storage is coming to dominate the nation’s power grid queues, representing the majority of new power plant applications.
Western and Southeastern utilities’ progress in advancing 194 GW of solar projects is a mystery
As Western and Southeastern utilities process 194 GW of solar interconnection requests, we asked 20 of them about the final cost studies they completed last year, which would permit projects to move forward. Then we turned to Berkeley Lab analyses for more insights.
