EDF, PSEI Secure Funds for California Solar Project
EDF Renewables North America and Power Sustainable Energy Infrastructure Inc have secured financing for the Desert Quartzite solar-plus-storage project in California. The facility, with a capacity of 300 MWac/375 MWdc, combines solar power generation with energy storage capabilities.The project aims to enhance renewable energy supply and grid reliability in the region. The successful funding closure marks a significant step in advancing clean energy infrastructure, supporting California's renewable energy goals. How Will the Desert Quartzite Project Impact California's Renewable Energy Goals? Increased Renewable Energy Capacity: The Desert Quartzite Project will add 300 MWac/375 MWdc of solar power to California's energy grid, contributing significantly to the state's renewable energy capacity. Energy Storage Integration: By incorporating energy storage, the project will help stabilize the grid, allowing for better management of energy supply and demand, and reducing reliance on fossil fuels during peak times. Progress Towards 100% Clean Energy: The project supports California's goal of achieving 100% clean energy by 2045 by providing a substantial addition to the state's renewable energy portfolio. Reduction in Greenhouse Gas Emissions: By replacing fossil fuel-based energy with solar power, the project will contribute to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, aligning with California's climate action targets. Economic and Job Growth: The construction and operation of the Desert Quartzite Project are expected to create jobs and stimulate economic growth in the region, supporting local communities. Technological Advancement: The project showcases the integration of advanced solar and storage technologies, setting a precedent for future renewable energy projects in California. Grid Reliability and Resilience: The addition of storage capabilities enhances grid reliability and resilience, ensuring a more consistent and reliable energy supply even during periods of high demand or low solar generation. Support for Policy Initiatives: The project aligns with California's policy initiatives aimed at increasing renewable energy adoption and reducing carbon emissions, reinforcing the state's leadership in clean energy transition.

49.9MW Solar Farm Proposed in Cornwall
EDF Renewables UK has announced plans to develop a 49.9-MW solar farm near St Stephen in Cornwall, South West England. The Trelion project is expected to generate enough energy a year to meet the needs of 9,562 households. In order to finalise the plans, the developer will first hold a formal consultation in September, followed by submitting a planning application to Cornwall Council next year.In addition to the project, the developer will also set up a community fund of GBP 20,000 a year for 40 years, as well as plant wildflower meadows, hedgerows and trees. The solar panels will be mounted on fixed frames. This project follows EDF Renewables UK’s recently secured planning consent for a huge solar project in Essex. What Are EDF Renewables UK's Plans for Trelion Solar Farm? EDF Renewables UK's plans for Trelion Solar Farm include: Construction of one of the largest solar parks in Italy Utilizing more than 32,000 photovoltaic panels to provide 12% of EDF Renewables UK's total electricity demand Surplus electricity generated outside of the plant’s operating hours to be used by local communities Utilizing cutting edge solar technology to maximize efficiency Providing 1,450 tons of carbon emission reduction every year Construction of over 10,000 meters of underground cables Full operation expected by the end of 2020
