Clenera<\/a> in Fallon County in far eastern Montana, is the largest project in the state to move forward; it has a 15-year PPA with Basin Electric Power Cooperative. The project will begin construction in 2022 or early 2023 and is expected to be completed before the end of 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\nA 160 MW solar project has been proposed north of Dillon, Montana, in the state\u2019s western quadrant. This project would be located on roughly 1,300 acres, but is being held up as the developer, Clenera, works to come to terms on pricing with Northwestern Energy, the project\u2019s initial interested buyer. The goal was to bring this project on-line by the end of 2021. Without a power contract in place, that timetable may be hard to achieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
