The Largest Proposed Solar Project in the US 🇺🇸 Exciting news for renewable energy: Pine Gate Renewables Sunstone Solar Project, the largest proposed solar project in the U.S., has received its final approval from Oregon’s Energy Facility Siting Council. This 1.2 GW solar and 1.2 GW storage project is a testament to the potential of clean energy to drive both sustainability and economic growth. Located in Morrow County, the project will invest over $1,000 per acre into programs supporting the local agricultural economy, ensuring a balance between renewable energy development and agricultural resilience. Pine Gate’s collaborative approach sets a new standard for thoughtful, community-focused energy projects. Construction is set to begin in 2026, with the project connecting to the Bonneville Power Administration system. This milestone, supported by investments from the Inflation Reduction Act, highlights Oregon’s leadership in renewable energy innovation. #RenewableEnergy #SolarPower #Sustainability #EnergyTransition #Solar #renewableenergy #solarenergy #cleanenergy #greenenergy #cleantech #sustainableenergy #communitysolar #renewables #solarfarms #construction #climate Appleton Finn
