Document Description
Savira Renewables, LLC proposes to construct the Savira Solar Project, a utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) electrical generating and storage facility and associated infrastructure to generate and deliver renewable electricity to the statewide electricity transmission grid. The Project would generate up to approximately 150 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy via arrays of solar PV panels. Project facilities include an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) building, a Project substation, and up to approximately 250 MW Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), and access driveways. The Savira Solar Project would include a 230 kilovolt (kV) substation. From there, the solar energy generated by the Project would be transmitted via the new approximately 1.8-mile-long, 230 kV gen-tie line.
