A utility scale solar project is underway in Lincoln County, with plans to serve multiple Strip locations.
Engineering and construction company Bechtel was selected by Estuary Power to design and construct the new 226 megawatts direct current photovoltaic solar facility — Escape Solar — in southeast Nevada. The new solar panels will serve four major customers in Nevada: MGM Resorts International, Caesars Entertainment, Wynn Las Vegas and Overton Power District.
“We look forward to building a facility that will generate renewable energy for decades to come and add to Nevada’s successful history of renewable power generation,” said Kelley Brown, operations manager of Bechtel’s renewables and clean power business, in a statement.
