This project is a partnership with the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD). Construction is slated to begin in Fall 2024. The project will feature both photovoltaic (PV) power generation and battery energy storage solutions (BESS). This ensures low-cost, emission-free energy is generated and stored for use when it is needed, regardless of weather conditions.
This timeline is an estimate and subject to change. For specific questions, contact the project team.
Will there be other activities on this project besides generating solar power?
Yes. Herd animals, likely sheep, will also be used for vegetation management. The vegetative mix will include native herbaceous hedgerows, grasses, clover, and California poppy to promote pollinator-friendly habitat.
Who is receiving the energy produced at this project?
Clēnera has entered into a power purchase agreement with the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) to buy the clean energy produced at this solar farm.
Who owns the land for this project?
Clēnera is leasing the land for this project from private property owners and SMUD.
