Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PCG) said it has contracted with Agua Caliente Solar, LLC, a subsidiary of NextLight Renewable Power, LLC, for 290 megawatts of solar power to serve PG&E's customers in Northern and Central California.
The agreement is one of several recently signed by the utility with independent developers for a total of 830 MW of solar power.
The Agua Caliente project will deliver about 700 gigawatt-hours of energy per year, enough to serve the needs of more than 100 thousand average homes. Initial deliveries are expected to begin in mid-2012, with the project becoming fully operational by late 2014.
