NRG Energy, the New Jersey-based power producer, has completed a 20MW solar farm in California for leading IT and networking firm Cisco.
Located in Blythe, in the western part of the state in the Lower Colorado River Valley region, the 60 hectare plant will generate renewable power for use at the company’s San Jose headquarters.
All electricity and renewable energy credits generated by the installation go to Cisco under a 20-year PPA, increasing Cisco headquarters’ total use of clean, emission-free electricity, and helping the company to meet its 2017 sustainability goals to use at least 25% renewable power for its annual energy needs.
