Vasari Energy, Inc. a California based solar energy provider, signed a contract to purchase 450 acres of land in Maricopa County, Arizona for the development of a project with up to 68 MW of solar power.

Once fully permitted and engineered, the Company estimates the selling price will be approximately $13.6 million. Construction is expected to begin in October of 2019, and expected to be operating and delivering power by October of 2020.
“Our development team consists of some of the best environmental experts, transmission engineers and permitting specialists in the industry to allow us to obtain all approvals as quickly as possible,” said Sam Lipman, Vice President of Vasari Energy, Inc. “This project will allow Vasari Energy to get closer to its objective of $500 million of solar projects under development in 2017.”
