北卡罗来纳州夏洛特/ACCESSWIRE/2023年2月7日/杜克能源(纽约证券交易所股票代码：DUK)旗下不受监管的商业品牌杜克能源可持续解决方案公司今天宣布，它已将爱达荷州双子瀑布尔县的120兆瓦大奖太阳能项目投入商业运营。
This is the organization's first utility-scale renewable energy project in the state and is the largest solar facility in operation in Idaho. It will provide energy to Idaho Power through a 20-year power purchase agreement. At 120 megawatts of capacity, the plant will generate enough electricity annually to serve the energy needs of roughly 24,000 homes.
这是该组织在该州的第一个公用事业规模的可再生能源项目，也是爱达荷州运营中的最大太阳能设施。它将通过一份为期20年的电力购买协议向爱达荷州电力公司提供能源。该电厂的装机容量为120兆瓦，每年将产生足够的电力，满足大约2.4万户家庭的能源需求。
"Entering the Idaho solar market with such a major renewable project is very exciting for Duke Energy," said Chris Fallon, president of Duke Energy Sustainable Solutions. "Jackpot Solar will help strengthen the energy diversity in the state, and bring additional economic benefits to the state and Twin Falls County, while also supporting Idaho Power's clean energy goals."
杜克能源可持续解决方案公司的总裁表示：“带着这样一个重大的可再生能源项目进入爱达荷州太阳能市场，对杜克能源来说是非常令人兴奋的。”Jackpot Solar将有助于加强该州的能源多样性，并为该州和双子瀑布尔县带来额外的经济利益，同时也支持爱达荷州电力公司的清洁能源目标。
Jackpot Solar will move Idaho Power toward its Clean Today, Cleaner Tomorrow target of providing 100% clean energy by 2045.
Rackpot Solar将推动爱达荷州电力公司实现其到2045年提供100%清洁能源的今日清洁、明天清洁的目标。
"This project continues our commitment to clean energy while also helping us address the rapidly growing need for new resources to ensure we can provide reliable, affordable electricity to our customers," said Idaho Power senior vice president and COO Adam Richins.
爱达荷州电力公司高级副总裁和首席运营官亚当·里金斯表示：“该项目延续了我们对清洁能源的承诺，同时也帮助我们满足了快速增长的对新资源的需求，以确保我们能够为客户提供可靠、负担得起的电力。”
SOLV Energy completed the engineering and construction of the project, which is located on 952 rural acres south of the city of Twin Falls. Duke Energy Sustainable Solutions will own and operate the project.
Solv Energy完成了该项目的工程和建设，该项目位于双子瀑布市以南952英亩的农村地区。杜克能源可持续解决方案公司将拥有并运营该项目。
The project employed about 200 workers at peak construction. Along with indirect economic benefits that accompany solar project development, such as increased local spending in the service and construction industries, the Jackpot Solar facility will also have a positive economic impact on the local community by providing significant tax revenues for the Filer Consolidated School District.
该项目在施工高峰期雇佣了大约200名工人。除了伴随着太阳能项目开发带来的间接经济利益，如增加当地在服务业和建筑业的支出，大奖太阳能设施还将为菲勒综合学区提供大量税收，从而对当地社区产生积极的经济影响。
Additionally, the Duke Energy Foundation awarded a $15,000 grant to the Shoshone Basin Rangeland Fire Protection Association to support the organization's efforts to enhance the safety of the citizens in rural areas of Twin Falls County, Idaho.
此外，杜克能源基金会向肖肖尼盆地牧场消防协会提供了15,000美元的赠款，以支持该组织加强爱达荷州双子瀑布县农村地区公民的安全的努力。
