About

The ARTEMIS project is a proposed 824.67 MW hybrid solar and battery energy storage project located in Kern County, California. The development project consists of 412.34 MW of solar generation paired with 412.34 MW of battery storage. The project is interconnected to the CAISO grid at the Arco 230 kV point of interconnection.

The ARTEMIS project is listed in the CAISO interconnection queue as entry CAISO-1980, with a queue entry date of April 15, 2021. The proposed commercial operation date is October 18, 2029. The project's interconnection status is currently in the System Impact Study phase. Recent news coverage has discussed the project.
