About

The KAWICH project is a proposed 700 MW hybrid solar and battery energy storage development in Clark County, Nevada. The project, located within the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) region, consists of a 350 MW solar photovoltaic array coupled with a 350 MW battery energy storage system. The interconnection customer is GLW.

KAWICH is listed in the CAISO interconnection queue as queue ID CAISO-2147, with an entry date of April 15, 2021. The project's proposed commercial operation date is July 27, 2029, and the Interconnection Agreement (IA) has been executed. The point of interconnection is the Innovation-Desert View 230 kV Line.

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.
