Project Detail |
The proposed 1-MWac solar PV project is anticipated to provide important benefits:
It will benefit every tribal member because the cost of running The Country Club, including electric bills, comes out of the General Fund. The estimated 20-year project savings of $6,264,998 can be redirected to other vital community needs.
The Tribe plans to organize and train tribal members to operate and maintain the solar system.
The solar project is expected to save 22,832 tons of carbon emissions throughout its lifetime.
The project will be a giant step in making the country club nearly energy independent.
Specifically, the solar PV system is a 1-MWac ground-mounted, fixed-tilt system. Its generation output will be transmitted to and interconnected with Southern California Edisons (SCE) 12-kV distribution line, which runs adjacent to the site, in accordance with its Interconnection criteria, and credited at full retail value as a generation credit in accordance with SCEs Aggregate Net Energy Metering program (ANEM). Under ANEM, the subject meters of The Country Club will each receive a credit based on its share of the PV systems total generation to apply toward its electric utility bill. The total allocated generation of 1 MWac for the proposed project falls with the maximum allowed SCE ANEM limit of 1 MWac and satisfies almost 91.3% of the total annual load of all of the meters serving the facility.
