sPower, the largest private owner of operating solar assets in
the United States, has signed a 22-year, 100 MW solar Power
Purchase Agreement (PPA) with CleanPowerSF, a California Community
Choice Aggregator (CCA) managed by the San Francisco Public
Utilities Commission (SFPUC) that serves the City and County of San
Francisco. The energy will be sold from sPower’s San Pablo Raceway
Solar Project located in Lancaster, California.
San Pablo Raceway is expected to be commercially operational in
2019 and generate enough renewable energy to power over 87,000
average San Francisco households. The project will create
approximately 500 positions during its construction and 10 full
time positions during operation.
“We are thrilled to partner with sPower and deliver on our
promise to invest in renewable energy projects and ensure clean,
safe and reliable energy for our customers for years to come,” said
Barbara Hale, SFPUC Assistant General Manager for Power.
“We are excited to partner with CleanPowerSF to provide clean
renewable solar energy for San Francisco,” said Hans Isern, SVP of
Power Marketing at sPower.
The San Pablo Raceway Project will be part of sPower’s large
solar portfolio in the Antelope Valley, which totals over 600 MW.
This is the fourth PPA sPower has signed with CCAs in
California.
