EDF power solutions North America Signs Agreement with Southern California Public Power Authority for Solar Project
EDF power solutions North America today announced the execution of a 30-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Southern California Public Power Authority (SCPPA). The PPA covers the output from a 400-megawatt (MW)dc/300 MWac solar project known as the Utah Solar 1 Energy project for participating member Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP).
Utah Solar 1, located on state-owned lands managed by Utah Trust Lands Administration (TLA) in Millard County, Utah, expects to begin delivering electricity in mid-2027. The peak construction phase will employ approximately 400 workers, and the project expects to generate over $40 million in local tax revenue and $27 million in lease revenue to TLA over the term of the PPA.
“We are delighted to extend our successful partnership with SCPPA, which has been ongoing for over a decade, to expand the availability of renewable energy and support their decarbonization commitment for member communities,” said Matthew Beltz, Senior Director Origination & Power Marketing at EDF power solutions North America. “We look forward to future opportunities that will advance SCPPA’s goals of achieving carbon-free energy in Southern California.”
