There were two big solar announcements in Arizona last week that could bring 57 additional MW of PV capacity to the state.The first piece of news comes from the utility Arizona Public Service, which signed contracts for two plants with a combined capacity of 37 MW. The facilities will be developed by the solar-services provider SunEdison.
The 17-megawatt Hyder solar plant and the 20-megawatt Chino Valley solar plant are part of APS’s AZ Sun program. Through this program, APS plans to develop 100 megawatts of utility-owned photovoltaic power plants using a procurement model where a third party builds the solar plant and APS takes ownership when it goes into commercial operation.
According to APS, with the two projects announced today, AZ Sun has 70 megawatts in development. APS’s other two AZ Sun projects, a 15-megawatt installation at Luke Air Force Base and an 18-megawatt project in Gila Bend, are both scheduled to come online in 2011.
