SPP-GEN-2024-035 is a proposed 270 MW hybrid solar and battery project located in Brown County, South Dakota. The project, which consists of 270 MW of solar generation, is in the Southwest Power Pool (SPP) interconnection queue as of October 30, 2024. The proposed commercial operation date is December 30, 2027.
The Balancing Authority is BEPC. The project's interconnection status is currently in the System Impact Study phase. The point of interconnection (POI) is the Groton 345 kV Substation.
