The Urtica Solar Project is a 5 MW solar photovoltaic power plant located in Kittitas County, Washington. The plant began operating in 2022 and has a single generator. It is owned and operated by Greenbacker Renewable Energy Corporation. The facility utilizes single-axis tracking to maximize solar energy capture.
In its most recent year of operation, the Urtica Solar Project generated 10,603 MWh of electricity, resulting in a capacity factor of 24.1%. The plant is interconnected to the grid within the Puget Sound Energy balancing authority, which operates within the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) NERC region. Urtica Solar Project is ranked as the 8th largest solar plant out of 10 in Washington state, and nationally it is ranked 2522 out of 7108 solar plants.

This plant's balancing authority participates in CAISO's Western Energy Imbalance Market (WEIM). Direct nodal pricing data is not yet available.
No wholesale contracts disclosed in FERC EQR for this plant.
FERC EQR captures bilateral wholesale energy + capacity contracts ≥$1M/yr filed quarterly by jurisdictional sellers — covers renewable PPAs, thermal energy sales agreements, capacity contracts, and tolling agreements alike. Many plants don't appear: regulated-utility output flows to ratepayers via cost-of-service rather than bilateral contracts; small projects fall below the filing threshold; tax-equity-financed renewables route offtake to investors not utilities; merchant plants sell into ISO clearing markets without bilateral contracts. News-extracted buyer facts (below) may surface contracts disclosed only through announcements.
