Clean energy firm Intersect Power LLC announced today that it has commissioned a 500-MW solar farm, coupled with a battery energy storage system (BESS), in Riverside County, California.

The 679-MWp power generating facility will produce enough electricity to meet the power demand of more than 207,000 homes annually. The solar plant is backed by a 250-MW/1-GWh co-located storage.

The Oberon Solar + Storage site spans roughly 2,600 acres of public lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It marks the first project to be completed under BLM’s Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP).
