美国可再生能源开发商Leeward Renewable Energy位于加利福尼亚州克恩县的Rabbitbrush太阳能发电厂已投入商业运营。这个100 MW项目的所在地还配套了20 MW/50 MWh的储能系统、415000个薄膜光伏组件和锂离子电池。
Leeward公司将根据为期15年的购电协议向两家非营利性社区电力供应商——即中央海岸社区能源公司（Central Coast Community Energ）和硅谷清洁能源公司（Silicon Valley Clean Energy）——出售电力。
Leeward在2022年6月份完成了建设融资和税收权益承诺书，并于今年10月获得了税收权益融资。资金包括5850万美元的绿色贷款建设融资以及6250万美元的税收权益承诺额。
Leeward最初从第一太阳能（First Solar）收购了Rabbitbrush项目，作为双方之间一宗2.61亿美元交易的一部分。该太阳能组件制造商将其10 GW的公用事业规模太阳能项目平台出售给了Leeward。
美国国家奥杜邦协会（National Audubon Society）清洁能源倡议主任Garry George说道：“负责任的可再生能源开发将与野生动物保护齐头并进。LRE对非常重要的斯温氏鵟保护基金（Swainson’s Hawk Conservation Fund）所作出的贡献将帮助这些鵟在加州羚羊谷生存并繁衍。”
