Silver State South Solar Project
The Silver State South Solar Project is a 250 megawatt photovoltaic power plant located in Clark County, Nevada, and near the previously completed 50 MWAC Silver State North Solar Project and the 530 MW gas-fired Higgins Generating Station. The project was completed in late 2016 and was constructed by subcontractors for First Solar. The plant is owned and operated by a subsidiary of NextEra Energy Resources, and power is being sold to Southern California Edison.
The project occupies approximately 2,900 acres of public lands and is located adjacent to Primm, Nevada, in the Jean Lake/Roach Lake Special Recreation Management Area.
