EDF Renewables lands PPA for 117-MW solar park in California

The Sapphire PV park is expected to generate 375,800 MWh of clean energy annually, equal to the consumption of over 58,000 local homes.

EDF Renewables North America, part of French electric utility group EDF SA (EPA:EDF), has clinched a power off-take deal for a 117-MW solar project in California with Southern California Public Power Authority (SCPPA).

The power purchase agreement (PPA) calls for the US utility to procure the power output and receive renewable attributes from the Sapphire solar project. The deal has a 20-year term, EDF Renewables said on Tuesday.

To be installed on private land in California’s Riverside County, the Sapphire photovoltaic (PV) park is expected to generate 375,800 MWh of clean energy annually, equal to the consumption of over 58,000 local homes. It will deliver electricity to SCPPA’s Participating Members, Anaheim, Pasadena and Vernon. Power generation is due to be launched by end-December 2026.
