Umphuhlisi we-rPlus Energies ubhengeze ukutyikitywa kwesivumelwano sokuthenga amandla ixesha elide kunye nesixhobo somtyali-mali se-Idaho Power ukufaka iprojekthi ye-200 MW Pleasant Valley Solar e-Ada County, e-Idaho.
Kwiphulo layo eliqhubayo lokufuna amandlaonke amaziko ayo edatha ngamandla ahlaziyekayo, Inkampani yemidiya yoluntu i-Meta iye yafudukela kwiGem State yase-Idaho. Umsebenzisi we-Instagram, i-WhatsApp kunye ne-Facebook yaphendukela kumphuhlisi weprojekthi esekwe kwiSixeko saseSalt Lake ukwakha into enokuba yiprojekthi enkulu yelanga e-Idaho ukuxhasa i-Boise yayo, i-Id., imisebenzi yedatha, kwi-200 MW yamandla ombane.
Kule veki umphuhlisi weprojekthi i-rPlus Energies ubhengeze ukutyikitywa kwesivumelwano sokuthenga amandla ixesha elide (PPA) kunye nesixhobo somtyali-mali i-Idaho Power ukufaka iprojekthi ye-200 MW Pleasant Valley Solar e-Ada County, e-Idaho. Yakuba igqityiwe, iprojekthi yelanga esetyenziswayo iya kuba yeyona fama inkulu yelanga kwindawo yenkonzo yale ndawo.
Umphuhlisi uthi ulwakhiwo lwePleasant Valley kulindeleke ukuba lusebenzise iikontraka zasekhaya ngexesha lolwakhiwo, luzise ingeniso ebalulekileyo kule ndawo, luxhamle amashishini asekuhlaleni, kwaye luzise abasebenzi bokwakha abangama-220. Ulwakhiwo kweli ziko kulindeleke ukuba luqale ekupheleni kwalo nyaka.
"Ukukhanya kwelanga kuninzi e-Idaho - kwaye thina kwi-rPlus Energies siyaziqhenya ngokunceda urhulumente ukuba afezekise indlela ye-commonsense yokuzimela kwamandla kwaye asebenzise umthombo wamandla amaninzi ngokusemandleni awo," watsho uLuigi Resta, umongameli kunye negosa elilawulayo le-rPlus Energies.
Umphuhlisi wawongwa ngePleasant Valley Solar PPA ngenkqubo yothethathethwano kunye Meta kunye ne-Idaho Power. I-PPA yenziwe yaba nokwenzeka siSivumelwano seeNkonzo zaMandla esiza kuvumela ukufikelela kweMeta kwizinto ezihlaziyiweyo ukuze kuxhaswe imisebenzi yayo yasekuhlaleni ngelixa amandla ekwasiya kusetyenziso. I-Pleasant Valley iya kuhambisa amandla acocekileyo kwigridi ye-Idaho Power kwaye ifake isandla kwinjongo ye-Meta yokunika amandla i-100% yemisebenzi yayo ngamandla acocekileyo.
Umphuhlisi uzigcinile i-Sundt Renewables ukubonelela ngobunjineli, ukuthenga, kunye nolwakhiwo (EPC) iinkonzo zeprojekthi yePleasant Valley. I-EPC inamava kummandla, kwaye inekhontrakthi kunye ne-rPlus Energies ye-280 MW yeeprojekthi zelanga ezisetyenziswayo kwilizwe elingummelwane lase-Utah.
"I-Meta izimisele ukunciphisa indawo yethu yokusingqongileyo kwiindawo esihlala kuzo kunye nokusebenza, kwaye eyona nto iphambili kule njongo kukudala, ukwakha kunye nokuqhuba amaziko edatha asebenza ngamandla axhaswa ngamandla avuselelekayo," kusho u-Urvi Parekh, intloko yamandla avuselelekayo kwiMeta. "Enye yezinto eziphambili ekukhetheni i-Idaho kwindawo yethu entsha yedatha yedatha ngo-2022 kukufikelela kumandla avuselelekayo, kwaye i-Meta iyaziqhenya ngokusebenzisana ne-Idaho Power kunye ne-rPlus Energies ukunceda ukuzisa amandla avuselelekayo ngakumbi kwigridi ye-Treasure Valley."
I-Pleasant Valley Solar iya kwandisa kakhulu umthamo wamandla ahlaziyekayo kwinkqubo ye-Idaho Power. Isixhobo esisebenzayo sifumana iiprojekthi zamandla ahlaziyekayo kwinjongo yalo yokuvelisa amandla acocekileyo nge-100% ngo-2045. Ngokutsho kwe-SEIA, ukusukela nge-Q4 2022, urhulumente ebedume ngeetapile zakhe kwindawo yama-29 e-US kuphuhliso lwelanga, kunye ne-644 MW kuphela yofakelo lulonke.
"I-Pleasant Valley ayiyi kuba yiprojekthi enkulu yelanga kwinkqubo yethu, kodwa kwakhona ngumzekelo wendlela yethu ecetywayo ye-Coca Energy Your Way inkqubo enokusinceda ukuba sisebenzisana nabathengi ukuba bahlangabezane neenjongo zabo zamandla acocekileyo," kusho uLisa Grow, igosa elilawulayo le-Idaho Power.
Kwisemina yamva nje yeSolar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) yezeMali, iRhafu kunye nabaThengi eNew York, iMeta's Parekh yathi inkampani yeendaba zentlalo ibona i-30% eyomeleleyo yokukhula kwenqanaba lonyaka lokusasazwa kweeprojekthi zamandla avuselelekayo ezidibanisa kunye nokusebenza kwayo kwiziko ledatha entsha.
Ukusukela ekuqaleni kuka-2023, iMeta ime njengeyona inkuluumthengi wezorhwebo noshishinoyamandla elanga e-US, eqhayisa kufutshane ne-3.6 GW yomthamo welanga ofakiweyo. UParekh uphinde waveza ukuba inkampani ingaphezulu kwe-9 GW yomthamo olindele uphuhliso kule minyaka izayo, kunye neeprojekthi ezinje ngePleasant Valley Solar emele ipotifoliyo yayo ekhulayo.
Ngasekupheleni kuka-2022, uResta uxelele imagazini ye-pv e-USA ukuba umphuhlisi wamazwe asentshona nguyeukusebenza ngokukhutheleyo kwipotfoliyo yophuhliso eyi-1.2 GWphakathi kombhobho obanzi we-13 GW weprojekthi yeminyaka emininzi equka ilanga, ugcino lwamandla, umoya kunye nempahla yokugcina amanzi ampompelweyo.
