EDF Renewables North America Awarded Three Contracts totaling 1 Gigawatt of Solar + Storage in New York

The Columbia Solar, Ridge View Solar, and Rich Road Solar Projects are among 22 large-scale solar projects, including six with energy storage, across upstate New York to receive an award.

SAN DIEGO (June 10, 2022): EDF Renewables North America today announced three solar projects were awarded long-term contracts by New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) as part of the 2021 solicitation for large-scale renewable energy certificates. Combined, 1 gigawatt (GW) of solar + storage projects will deliver clean energy for the state.

The projects as follows represent nearly 40% of the total 2,408 MW awarded, and expect to deliver clean electricity by the end of 2025:

  • Columbia Solar Energy Center: 350 MWac with 20 MW of co-located storage sited on approximately 2,000 acres in the towns of Columbia and Litchfield, Herkimer County.
  • Ridge View Solar Energy Center: 350 MWac with 20 MW of co-located storage sited on approximately 2,000 acres sited in the town of Hartland, Niagara County.
  • Rich Road Solar Energy Center: 240 MWac with 20 MW of co-located storage sited on approximately 1,500 acres in the town of Canton, St. Lawrence County.

If you require any modules, please let us know. Here is some of the stock we have remaining. Also, if there is a specific panel let us know and we will do our best to find it for you.

I do have two other options with FutureSolar and Alpex. Both companies we planned to co-brand together before COVID. But unfortunately, when COVID happened, we put the plan on hold. Yet, I sold modules for him, and we are working on getting him Tier 1 status with Bloomberg. So now we are working on doing the co-brand again.

Finding a reliable manufacturer fulfills some of the product requirements when an owner can work with a Tier 2 manufacturer. Suppose this manufacturer is close to Tier-1 status. Alpex has been manufacturing for the Indian Bloomberg Tier 1 manufacturers and is Tier 1 in India and has bankability proof.

If you have any questions, please contact Karlita or Robert and they will be happy to assist you.
