The proposed IP-655 project is a 325 MW solar and battery hybrid development located in Bear Lake County, Idaho. Being developed by Aurora Solar LLC, the project consists of 325 MW of solar capacity. It is interconnected to the Idaho Power Company grid at the Bridger_x0013_Populus 345kV Line.
The project is listed in the IP (Idaho Power) interconnection queue with an entry date of May 10, 2022, and a proposed commercial operation date of December 31, 2025. An Interconnection Agreement (IA) for the project was executed on December 14, 2023. The project's interconnection status is listed as active.
