Invenergy has announced the largest renewable project ever proposed for Long Island. The project, Clean Energy Link, consists of four new wind (478MW) and two new solar farms (223MW) located within the 12-state PJM regional power market, with a combined capacity exceeding 700MW.
All the renewable energy from these projects will be joined into a single portfolio and delivered to Long Island from PJM via a new buried HVDC transmission line, ending at a net-zero converter station on Long Island. The start of the project is timed to capture all of the federal incentives for wind and solar energy production and the project is expected to be operational by the end of 2020.
