US renewable energy company RWE Clean Energy has acquired 400MW of Solar PV and 199MW of standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) assets from Galehead Development.

The updated Western Solar Plan would streamline the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) framework for siting solar energy projects.

The Idaho Public Utilities Commission (PUC) voted late last year (29th December) to shift from a net metering to a net billing model for residential solar installations in a move which will make rooftop solar “unreachable” for most.

Matrix Renewables and rPlus Energies have started construction at the Pleasant Valley solar project in the US state of Idaho.

Spanish developer Matrix Renewables has acquired a controlling interest in the 261 MWdc/200 MWac Pleasant Valley Solar Project from US renewables developer rPlus Energies.

US solar and wind developer Duke Energy Renewables has received a US$90 million tax equity investment from financial holding company CapitalOne towards the 120MW Jackpot solar PV project in Idaho.

Project will utilise the grid connection of a soon-to-be-retired coal power plant.

US solar project owner sPower has acquired the operational 55MW PV project Idaho Solar 1, located in Kuna County, Idaho.
