The Pueblo of Picuris Community Solar Project (Project) is a 1-megawatt (MW) alternating current (AC) ground mounted, fixed tilt solar photovoltaic system that became operational on December 18th, 2017. The Project, which was partially funded by the DOE (Grant No. DEIE0000033), generates revenue for the Tribe through a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the electric utility, Kit Carson Electric Cooperative. The PPA revenue provides Tribal members with residential and commercial electric utility bill offsets and also supports critical Tribal programs. This Final Report provides a technical overview of the Project, documents the Project’s development process and outcomes, identifies successes and challenges, and offers recommendations for similarly funded tribal projects.
