About

The REDONDA project is a proposed 541.74 MW hybrid solar and battery energy storage project located in Riverside County, California. The project consists of 273.02 MW of solar generation and 268.71 MW of battery storage. It is interconnected to Southern California Edison (SCE) and is in the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) interconnection queue as entry CAISO-2036, with a queue entry date of April 15, 2021. The proposed commercial operation date is January 1, 2031, and the project's interconnection status is currently in the System Impact Study phase.

The proposed project's point of interconnection (POI) is the Red Bluff Substation 220 kV. The REDONDA project has been mentioned in recent news coverage related to the energy industry.
