Northern Bobwhite Solar is a proposed 96 MW solar generation project located in Marion County, Kentucky. The project, developed by an unknown entity, is interconnected to the East Kentucky Power Cooperative (EKPC) via the Marion County 161 kV point of interconnection. It entered the PJM interconnection queue on September 25, 2018, under queue ID PJM-AE1-143, and has a proposed commercial operation date of March 15, 2027. The project's interconnection agreement (IA) has been executed.
The Northern Bobwhite Solar project has been the subject of recent news coverage, with six articles appearing in categories such as deals, industry, regulatory matters, and grid infrastructure.
