The facility is projected to come on-line as of Oct. 1, 2020. The facility owner plans to sell the electricity to Duke Energy Carolinas pursuant to a power purchase agreement.
The service life of the $94.5 million project is expected to be approximately 35 years. The projected annual sales are expected to be about 99,940,000 kWh.
