The project will be sited on roughly 1,118 acres across multiple parcels. The project is split into two sections and will be connected by an underground powerline. The solar array will connect up to 60 megawatts alternating current (AC) to Dominion Virginia Power’s grid via the nearby 69 kV Gladys Substation.
