Title

Soda Mountain Solar Project

Description

Soda Mountain Solar, LLC (applicant), proposes to construct, operate, and maintain a utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) electrical generating and storage facility and associated infrastructure (operations and maintenance buildings, stormwater infrastructure, and related infrastructure improvements) to generate and deliver renewable electricity to the statewide electricity transmission grid. The project would generate up to 300 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy and include up to 300 MW/1,200 MW-hours (MWh) of battery storage. The batteries would be lithium ion or similar. The project would include a switchyard and substation. The power produced by the project would be conveyed to the regional electrical grid through an interconnection with the existing Mead-Adelanto 500-kilovolt (kV) transmission line operated by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP). The approximately 200 foot wide, 1-mile long 500 kV gen-tie line would run from the project substation, just southeast of I-15, to the switchyard and then to the point of interconnection with the existing LADWP Mead-Adelanto transmission line. A small segment of the gen-tie line, approximately 450 feet, would cross I-15.
