rPlus Energies Breaks Ground on 400 MW/1,600 MWh Solar PV Plus BESS Green River Energy Center

rPlus Energies announced the groundbreaking of the Green River Energy Center, a 400-megawatt (MW) solar PV and 400 MW/1,600 megawatt-hour battery storage project in Eastern Utah, USA.

Green River Energy Center will provide power to PacifiCorp through a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). After securing over US$1 billion in construction debt financing earlier in 2024, the project is set to generate around 500 jobs, many of which will be filled by local workers. Sundt Construction serves as the EPC contractor, with EliTe Solar supplying the solar modules and Tesla providing the battery storage system.
