Avangrid to upgrade key components of Big Horn I to extend its life and improve performance
Avangrid, Inc., a leading energy company and member of the Iberdrola Group, today announced the signing of a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Puget Sound Energy (PSE) for the Big Horn I project in Klickitat County, Washington. With a nameplate capacity of 199.5 Megawatts (MW), Big Horn I can generate enough electricity for about 70,000 homes annually. This expands the relationship between Avangrid and PSE, representing the fourth PPA executed by the two companies for projects in the Pacific Northwest.
“For more than two decades, Avangrid has been investing in Washington state to develop energy projects that support the region’s growing energy needs while delivering lasting economic benefits to the local community,” said Avangrid CEO Jose Antonio Miranda. “This builds on our strong relationship with PSE and ensures Big Horn I continues to provide reliable electricity while sustaining local jobs, tax revenue, and long-term value for the region.”
