Midway – set on low-productivity farmland in Imperial County,California – will enter construction next year and sell its electricity to “thirdparties” from 2016 to 2020, when PG&E will become the off-taker.
8minutenergy and Gestamp Solar, owned by Portugal's Gestamp group, will develop and build Midway.
California-based 8minutenergy – the developer behind theunder-construction 266MW Mount Signal mega-PV array (now owned by Silver RidgePower) – says the deal with PG&E lifts its in-house PPAs to more 375MW.
