Document Description
Environmental Impact Report No. 7257 for the Fifth Standard Solar Project Complex permitted by Conditional Use permits 3562, 3563, and 3564. Which allows the construction, operation, maintenance, and ultimate decommissioning of a 150-megawatt (MW) solar photovoltaic (PV) generation facility, an up to 20-MW solar PV generation facility, and an up to 100-MW energy storage facility and associated infrastructure. The proposed project is located on twelve contiguous parcels, totaling approximately 1,600 acres in unincorporated Fresno County. A new generation-tie (gen-tie) line would be constructed to connect the solar and storage components of the proposed project to Pacific Gas and Electric’s (PG&E’s) adjacent Gates Substation (point of interconnect). The anticipated lifetime of the proposed project would be 35 years and would be decommissioned once operations of the facility cease.
