US-based renewable energy provider sPower has received contracts from utility Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) for three solar projects in California.

Named Bayshore A, B, and C, the projects are located in the Californian city of Lancaster and have been awarded under a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).

To be commissioned next year, they are expected to reduce carbon emissions by 124,000 metric tons every year.

When fully operational, the facilities will have the capacity to produce renewable energy to power over 11,000 homes.
