Silicon Ranch, Green Power EMC to develop 252 MW solar portfolio in Georgia
Green Power EMC and Silicon Ranch have signed an agreement to bring an additional 252 megawatts (MWAC) of solar energy online to serve 16 subscribing cooperatives across Georgia, USA. The total capacity will be generated across three locations in southern Georgia and will produce enough power to serve more than 44,000 EMC households annually. Silicon Ranch will also own, operate, and maintain the projects while Green Power EMC will purchase all the energy and environmental attributes generated by the facilities on behalf of its member cooperatives.
The first site, Snipesville III, will be a 107 MWAC solar PV facility located in Jeff Davis County. Construction is expected to commence later this year, and the facility is scheduled to be operational by mid-2023. 65 MWAC DeSoto II solar PV facility will be located in Lee County. Silicon Ranch expects to begin construction in late 2022 and plans to bring the facility online by late 2023. The third site, Ailey, will be an 80 MWAC solar PV facility located in Montgomery County. Silicon Ranch plans to construct the project in 2024 and projects the facility to be online late that year.
