Key Facts
The 346-MW Gibson City Solar Project has achieved commercial operation in Illinois. The project was developed by Earthrise Energy and constructed by Burns & McDonnell.
Project details
The project used Earthrise Energy's surplus interconnection strategy, connecting through the existing switchyard of an adjacent gas-fired peaking facility rather than requiring a new interconnection. This approach allowed the project to leverage available grid capacity at the site.
