Madrid, August 1st 2022: EDP Renováveis, S.A. ("EDPR") has secured a long-term Power Purchase Agreement ("PPA") to sell the clean energy produced by a 200 MWac solar capacity for a project in the US.
The project is located in the state of California, and apart from the 200 MWac of solar technology the project also has 150 MW of storage. The project is expected to enter operation in 2024.
