Duke Energy Sustainable Solutions, a nonregulated commercial brand of Duke Energy, has started the construction of the 120 MW Jackpot Solar project located in Twin Falls County, Idaho in the USA.
The Jackpot Solar project is expected to achieve commercial operation by the end of 2022 and will provide energy to Idaho Power through a 20-year power purchase agreement, selling the associated renewable energy credits (RECs) to offset power supply costs and to keep customer prices low.
Swinerton Renewable Energy is doing the engineering and construction for the project, which will be located on 952 rural acres south of the city of Twin Falls. Duke Energy Sustainable Solutions will own and operate the project.
