Invenergy's 160 MW Southern Oak Solar Energy Center in Georgia reaches commercial operation
Invenergy has started the commercial operations of its 160 MW Southern Oak Solar Energy Center, located in Mitchell County, Georgia, just northwest of the town of Camilla, USA.
Southern Oak is Invenergy’s second project to deploy bifacial solar panels. The technology increases efficiency by capturing additional sunlight within the same project footprint.
Renewable Energy Systems (RES), a global company that provides engineering and construction services for wind, solar, transmission, and energy storage projects, constructed the project.
Invenergy will maintain ownership of Southern Oak and is under a 30-year contract to sell 100% of the energy and renewable attributes from the facility to Georgia Power through the Renewable Energy Development Initiative (REDI) program.
