The project ties another for the largest in capacity in the state and it is set to include a 165MW battery energy storage installation.
The Paris Solar Center was developed by Invenergy and is set to reach commercial operation in 2023.
All three installations are part of the utility’s plan to add 1,089 MW of solar in the state by the end of 2023.
The 1 MW installation is set to provide power to up to 1,000 customers, with more projects planned for Wisconsin and Iowa.
Governors of five states agreed to increase access to electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the Midwest.
Energy produced by the facility will serve WPPI Energy member communities in three states under a 20-year power purchase agreement.
The three projects represent a greater than 50% increase in the state’s installed solar capacity and are part of utility Alliant’s growing solar capacity.
The Paris Solar Energy Center was approved by regulators, but the developer is now asking to increase the storage total to 110 MW.
Michigan and Wisconsin have both introduced community solar legislation, banking on the success that neighboring Minnesota has had with community installations.
The 20 MW O’Brien Solar Fields are helping local governments and businesses meet their renewable energy goals, as MGE turns its focus towards a proposed 300 MW solar project with a 165 MW battery.
