Dominion Energy Adds 81 Megawatts of Clean Energy to South Carolina`s Electric Grid
Source: Smart Grid Observer
Dominion Energy recently (12/29) announced that two South Carolina solar energy projects – including the largest such project in the Palmetto State – have entered service.
The company's 71.4-megawatt Solvay Solar Energy-Jasper County, S.C., facility, located near Ridgeland, S.C., came online on Dec. 21, 2017. It has a long-term power purchase agreement with SCE&G. Solvay – an international chemicals and advanced materials company with U.S. sites, among others, in Charleston, Greenville, Piedmont, Rock Hill and Spartanburg – is purchasing all of the associated renewable energy credits (RECs) for 15 years.
Dominion Energy's 10-megawatt Ridgeland Solar project, which began commercial operations on May 28, 2017, has both a PPA and REC agreement with SCE&G. The two projects created about 200 temporary construction jobs.
