Today, we announced our latest collaboration with Google and Omaha Public Power District – NextEra Energy Resources' Pierce County Energy Center. This center will be a 420-MW solar project and 170-MW/4-hour-duration battery storage energy system that will support Google’s carbon-free energy goals and provide Nebraskans with access to clean, reliable and low-cost energy. NextEra Energy Resources has invested more than $820 million in Nebraska since 2013. And more than that, University of Nebraska-Lincoln estimates the project will also create more than 540 jobs during construction and $5.7 million in annual economic activity during the project’s lifespan. Collaborations like this, which bring together the developer, the utility and the end user, are key to addressing grid reliability and capacity challenges as well as economic investment in communities across the United States. #Solarenergy #batterystorage #collaboration
