About

The VS75SB project is a proposed 75 MW hybrid solar and battery energy storage project located in Dona Ana County, New Mexico. The project consists of 75 MW of solar generation. It is in the El Paso Electric Company (EPE) interconnection queue as project EPE-LG-22-9-7, with a queue entry date of September 30, 2022, and a proposed commercial operation date of December 1, 2026. Its interconnection agreement (IA) status is currently listed as "IA Pending".

The project would interconnect to the Salopek-Vado 115kV line. Recent news coverage has discussed the development project.
