TVA seeks proposals for more solar power
The Tennessee Valley Authority is soliciting proposals for more solar generation and battery storage as the federal utility continues to move toward a more carbon-free generation mix.
TVA said it seeking 200 megawatts of solar power production or battery storage capability from developers that can bring new projects online by the end of 2024. Proposals must be submitted by July 20.
Developers can review TVA’s request for proposal and submit bids at www.tva.com/Information/Doing-Business-with-TVA. TVA will announce the selected projects this winter.
Since 2018, TVA’s Green Invest program which provides carbon-free power to companies like Amazon and Google that are moving to entirely renewable energy supplies has attracted nearly $2.7 billion in solar investment and procured about 2,100 megawatts of solar power.
