Renewable Properties inks almost 9-MW solar + storage PPA with California CCA

• Renewable Properties as well as Sonoma Clean Power (SCP) have actually authorized power purchase agreements for two solar projects. Among the projects, located in Ukiah, will consist of energy storage.

Both projects will certainly add to SCP's local resource plan for its EverGreen service, the initial as well as only California CCA to use subscribers 100% renewable, locally generated power 24/7 through solar, energy storage as well as geothermal power.

Among Renewable Properties' 2 solar projects will certainly consist of a 4-MW/16-MWh battery that will largely be used to capture solar power generated during the middle of the day as well as redeploy the energy in the evening hrs when customers require it most. In addition to energy shifting, the battery can smooth variable solar production and give regularity policy, dispatch books, and also various other grid services that increase the resiliency of the local power distribution network.

The solar and storage projects will certainly complement the baseload energy created by The Hot springs, SCP's existing local geothermal power plant and also one of the biggest geothermal plants on the planet. The combination of local solar, local storage, as well as local geothermal energy will certainly permit EverGreen subscribers to receive 100% of their power from renewable resource whatsoever times, avoiding the need to import gas-generated power throughout times of peak power use.

" Renewable Properties is committed to developing small-scale utility renewable resource projects that directly serve the areas we run in," claimed Brian von Moos, chief operating police officer at Renewable Properties. "We're pleased to support Sonoma Clean Power, a leader in providing in your area created renewable energy, with these projects that offer renewable resource when their customers need it most."

The projects, both situated in Mendocino County, will commence building and construction in March 2024 as well as are expected to be finished by very early 2025. The 4.99-MWAC Twin Pines Circle Solar project in Laytonville will generate enough energy to power 1,108 homes each year. The 4-MWAC Redemeyer Road Solar project in Ukiah will integrate a 16-MWh battery that will certainly create adequate power to power 934 homes each year. The Redemeyer project will certainly also be the very first in your area sited solar + storage project for Sonoma Clean Power.

" These Renewable Properties projects will contribute in aiding SCP to bring our customers the many benefits of creating locally sited renewable energy," stated Deb Emerson, taking care of director of power purchase at Sonoma Clean Power. "By incorporating solar and energy storage with our geothermal plant, these groundbreaking projects can act as a version for other areas looking for to accomplish local renewable resource objectives."

Twin Pines Circle Solar and also Redemeyer Road Solar add to Renewable Properties' expanding portfolio of local renewables projects for CCAs. To day, Renewable Properties has actually partnered with 4 various other California CCAs on solar projects, and also Redemeyer Road Solar will be the 2nd storage project with a CCA.
