About

The Dateland Energy Complex is a proposed 350 MW hybrid solar and battery project located in Yuma County, Arizona. The development project consists of a 237.5 MW solar array coupled with a 112.5 MW battery energy storage system. It is interconnected to the CAISO grid under queue ID CAISO-1812, with a queue entry date of April 15, 2020, and a proposed commercial operation date of June 1, 2027. The interconnection agreement for the project has been executed.

The proposed project, which will connect to the Hoodoo Wash Switchyard at 500 kV, has been the subject of recent news coverage, with eight articles appearing in industry and regulatory publications.
