The Great Valley Solar project, currently under construction in Fresno County, Calif., is located on approximately 1,600 acres adjacent to the 200 MWac/258 MWp Tranquillity Solar Facility. The Tranquillity facility was completed by Recurrent Energy in late 2016 and is majority-owned by a subsidiary of Southern Power.

The project, which is expected to be fully completed by Sempra Renewables in the third quarter 2018, should generate enough clean electricity to meet the energy needs of approximately 50,000 homes. Sempra Renewables has assumed construction of the project and will operate the facility, which is fully contracted under four independent long-term, power purchase agreements.
