Eagle Shadow Mountain Solar Farm
Eagle Shadow Mountain Solar Farm is a planned 420 MWp photovoltaic power station north of Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada on the Moapa River Indian Reservation.
The facility is being developed by 8minutenergy Renewables and when completed will be the largest photovoltaic system on tribal lands in North America. It is also the largest component within NV Energy's current tranche of renewable energy projects that will create over 1 Gigawatt of new electricity supply.
The electricity generated will have a flat rate of $23.76 per megawatt-hour throughout its 25-year power purchase agreement term, which could establish a new record-low rate for a solar PPA contract.
The project is also part of NV Energy’s plans to retire a 254 MW coal-fired unit in a power-constrained region of Nevada at the end of 2021, four years ahead of schedule.
