About the project
Bringing local jobs, investment, and clean energy to Pinal County, Arizona
Ørsted’s Eleven Mile Solar Center is a long-term asset for Pinal County that will help meet the energy needs of the state by providing clean, flexible, solar-powered electricity. This project represents a $1 billion investment in clean energy for Arizona.
Located on over 2,000 acres, the solar project will have the capacity to generate 300 megawatts of power – enough to power nearly 65,000 homes annually. The accompanying 300 MW / 1200 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) will store power for up to four hours each day, offering critical grid flexibility.
According to the Arizona Corporation Commission, the Eleven Mile Solar Center will also improve the reliability and safety of the local grid.
