Under the agreement, National Solar Power will build an up to 100MW solar energy project on property in Liberty County.
The project represents a $350m investment at full build out.
Once the appropriate local and state permitting process is completed, the first phase of the project is expected to be up and running within six to seven months of breaking ground.
Hensel Phelps Construction has agreed to design, build and operate the Liberty County solar farm project for National Solar Power.
National Solar Power is negotiating with multiple large financial institutions and private equity investors to provide project financing.
The company has entered into an agreement with Progress Energy Florida and is having discussions with other potential customers to purchase power generated by its Florida solar farm projects.
