About

The POTENTIA-VIRIDI project is a proposed 1224.74 MW hybrid energy development located in San Joaquin County, California. The project, which combines solar, wind, and battery technologies, consists of 410.04 MW of solar, 408.8 MW of wind, and 405.9 MW of battery storage. It is interconnected within the CAISO queue under queue ID CAISO-1702.

The project entered the CAISO queue on April 15, 2020, and has a proposed commercial operation date of May 11, 2028. An Interconnection Agreement (IA) was executed on October 31, 2022. The point of interconnection is the Tesla 500 kV substation. Recent news coverage has discussed the project's development and regulatory aspects.

Development Risk

Realization risk from now to commercial operation — financing close, EPC and tax-equity counterparty mix, and COD probability vs the proposed date. The diligence view that determines whether the deal actually closes. Powered by InfraSure's development-stage modeling stack.
