Enlight Renewable Energy and its US subsidiary Clēnera have signed a major power purchase agreement (PPA) with Arizona Public Service (APS) to develop the ambitious Snowflake A project , located near Holbrook in northeastern Arizona. This project, which includes 600 MW of solar generation capacity and 1,900 MWh of energy storage , is shaping up to be one of the most significant initiatives in Enlight’s portfolio.

The PPA, with a fixed price and a 20-year term, ensures a continuous supply of clean and stable energy to APS users. Construction is projected to begin in 2025 , with commercial operation expected in mid-2027, provided the necessary regulatory permits are obtained. Otherwise, the company may terminate the agreement without significant costs.

Clēnera CEO Adam Pishl highlighted the significance of the project: “ We have worked extensively with the authorities to design a development that will fully exploit the solar potential of the region and benefit the local community .” A second phase of the Snowflake complex is also being planned, which will increase capacity by a further 650 MW and 2,100 MWh .

The Snowflake A PPA is fundamental to our expansion strategy in the US market. We are in the midst of implementing several key projects that will strengthen our presence in the region.

Ilan Goren, CEO of Enlight US, stressed.

The Snowflake A project aligns with Enlight’s vision to establish itself as a leading player in the renewable energy sector, demonstrating an effective strategy to interconnect and maximize the energy performance of its developments.
