NADB managing director Gerónimo Gutiérrez calls the loan the “opening of a new chapter... that will help us move forward in the development of renewable energy projects”.
The project is to consist of fixed-tilt polycrystalline PV panels arrayed across 123 acres in Niland within the Imperial Irrigation District, which will also purchase output from 20MW of the project. The irrigation district must meet California’s 33% by 2020 Renewable Portfolio Standard.
