(Photo/Marcus Constantino) RAVENSWOOD, W.Va. — The president and chief executive of Berkshire Hathaway Energy Renewables said Saturday the company is moving as quickly as possible to get its solar plant built in Ravenswood.
Leaving the PSC out of the process means that in most cases, Berkshire Hathaway Energy, which is worth $53 billion, will get to set its own rates, except when they go to the PSC to ask for a “special rate”.
Berkshire Hathaway Energy will be building a microgrid, or an energy system that can power itself, on the former Century Aluminum site in Ravenswood. The project will deliver solar energy to all of the customers within a special business development district, which will be overseen by the state Department of Economic Development.
BHE Renewables is purchasing the land, home to a shuttered aluminum plant, from the West Virginia Economic Development Authority and will work with the West Virginia Economic Development Authority to bring additional businesses to the site to benefit from the prime manufacturing location and renewable energy infrastructure.
A groundbreaking event was held on more than 2,000 acres of land in Jackson County, West Virginia. BHE Renewables, a Berkshire Hathaway Energy business, is developing the property into a first-of-its-kind solar energy microgrid-powered industrial site.
NV Energy has 150 megawatts of contracted solar resources planned for commercial operation in second quarter 2024 and has an additional 400 megawatts of owned and 1,318 megawatts of contracted solar resources planned for commercial operation by August 1, 2024.
