Georgia is experiencing extraordinary growth, requiring resilient energy infrastructure. To meet increasing electricity demand, Georgia Power is strategically expanding its diverse energy mix.
Together with Inman Solar, Georgia Power developed 11 new distributed generation solar projects totaling 50 MWdc. This portfolio is expected to produce more than 90,000 MWh of solar energy annually, significantly growing Georgia Power’s distributed generation footprint. Additionally, these solar projects are interconnected to the state’s distribution grid, bolstering efficiency and resilience to ensure reliable power supply for local communities.
In addition to increasing sustainability and strengthening the grid, the new solar projects deliver significant economic value. TotalEnergies acquired, owns, and operates this portfolio, providing the necessary investment to bring the 50 MWdc online. Under 30-year Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), Georgia Power will buy all of the solar output generated by the systems at predetermined rates for the next 30 years. This long-term agreement locks in predictable energy pricing, providing a hedge against the volatile wholesale energy market and protecting customers from rising electricity costs over the coming decades.
Distributed across six counties in South Georgia, these projects supply reliable, cost-effective power to local residents in the region.
