About

The Arida Solar Farm is a proposed 740 MW hybrid solar and battery project located in Clark County, Nevada. The development project consists of 370 MW of solar photovoltaic generation paired with 370 MW of battery energy storage. The project is in the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) interconnection queue as queue ID CAISO-1522, with an interconnection queue entry date of April 16, 2018.

The proposed commercial operation date is September 15, 2027. The project's interconnection status is currently in the System Impact Study phase. The point of interconnection is the Mohave Substation 500kV, and the interconnecting utility is Southern California Edison (SCE). The Arida Solar Farm has been mentioned in recent news coverage.
