Fluor to Build 125 Megawatt Solar Energy Facility in Arizona
02/03/2012
Fluor Corporation announced that Arlington Valley Solar Energy II, a member of LS Power Group, has awarded the company a lump-sum engineering, procurement and construction contract, as well as a separate contract for ongoing operations and maintenance services for its new nominal 125-megawatt solar photovoltaic facility located in Maricopa County, Arizona. Fluor has received full notice to proceed and booked the undisclosed EPC project value into backlog in the fourth quarter of 2011. The AVSE II project is located on approximately 1,160 acres with all of the major permits secured. This project will help meet the regional need for renewable energy and reduce dependence on fossil fuels. The Arlington Valley Combined Cycle Facility is nearby, which was designed and constructed by Fluor in 2002.
Engineering and procurement is under way from Fluor’s Southern California operations center. The facility is expected to achieve full commercial operation by the end of 2013. LS Power is a power generation and transmission group. LS Power has been involved in the development, construction or operations of more than 25,000 megawatts of power generation throughout the United States. AVSE II has closed financing for the project and has executed the power purchase agreement for the entire power output from the facility.
