Description
Description | The project involves transitioning the Nearman Creek Power Station, a coal power plant in Kansas City, Kansas, to a clean energy portfolio including wind, solar, energy efficiency, and demand response measures. The transition aims to maintain reliability while providing comparable or lower-cost power, potentially saving $1.3 million annually. The project also considers a "solar-for-coal" swap model where a third-party developer retires the coal asset and builds solar generation. |
