971MW, producing up to 1700 to 2400 GWh/year.
That puts it at 2471 hours/year of full-power production equivalent, or 28%. That's good - it's a nice area for solar.
- g8oz 3y agoThe average solar power purchase agreement is $49 per megawatt hour¹. That is $49,000 per GWh. So if this plant can produce 1700 gigawatt hours per year then they would be able to earn on the order of $83,000,000 annually. Not too shabby.
