Virginia Solar sold the 17 MW Scott-I project to Dominion Virginia Power in September 2015.
Dominion Virginia Power announced plans to acquire the Scott Solar project from Virginia Solar. The proposal included three 56 MW solar projects expected to cost approximately $129.5 million (aggregate for all three, excluding financing).
The Virginia State Corporation Commission issued a final order approving CPCN and Rider US-2 cost recovery for the three solar projects including Scott Solar (Case No. PUE-2015-00104).
EIA-860 lists generator 1 with this operating date.
The Virginia SCC issued a Final Order approving the BESS-3 battery pilot at Scott Solar. BESS-3 comprises a 2 MW / 8 MWh DC-coupled system and a 10 MW / 40 MWh AC-coupled system. The SCC found the projected cost of $26.1 million to be reasonable and prudent. An amended CPCN (ET-206a) was issued to include construction and operation of the battery system.
