Avangrid’s solar farm project location

It is located next to Avangrid’s Manzana wind farm, which has been in operation since 2012 and has a capacity of 189 MW. On the other hand, Camino Solar sits on both private land and more than 200 acres of public lands administered by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM).

The area where Camino Solar is located has been meticulously evaluated and selected as suitable for the development of clean energy projects as part of the BLM’s Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan.

Shelly Lynch, BLM’s California desert district manager, has stressed the importance of projects like Camino Solar. According to Lynch, public lands offer unique opportunities for renewable energy development, which is environmentally responsible.
