Equipped with 119,301 photovoltaic (PV) panels on single axis trackers and 13 power blocks, the plant will cover an area of around 210 acres.
Once in operation, the new facility will be able to generate 27.3MWac/ 37.6MWdc of solar energy, which will be sufficient to supply electricity to nearly 13,000 US households.
The plant will have a service lifetime of 25 years, with the capacity to produce up to 1,900GWh of energy. It will not only facilitate the production of renewable energy for Navajo Nation but also help support the local economy by creating new job and investment opportunities during the peak construction period, as well as 25 years of operation and maintenance.
