Bluebird Solar
Project
EOZ2020-01 AND
SEP2020-17
Name of Propos-
al: Bluebird Solar
Project
Description of
proposal
Aurora Solar, LLC,
a wholly-owned sub-
sidiary of Avangrid
Renewables, LLC,
proposes to develop
a 10 0 - m e g a w a t t
(MW) solar ener-
gy facility about 26
miles east of Gol-
dendale, and five
miles north of State
H i g h w a y 14 . Th e
applicant is consid-
ering various layouts
within a larger “Solar
Facility Siting Area”
containing approxi-
mately 1,638 acres.
The Solar Facility
Siting Area would
overlap with portions
of the Big Horn Wind
Facility. The fenced
area is comprised of
approximately 700
acres and would in-
clude solar modules,
inver ters, I-beam
steel posts, fencing,
2 0 - f t w i d e g ra v e l
roads and a collector
substation located
across Big Horn
Road from the Big
Horn gen-tie line.
No onsite batter y
energy storage sys-
tem is proposed.
The project will
consist of the follow-
ing components:
The solar modules
use crystalline cells
to generate elec-
tricity by converting
sunlight into direct
current electrical
energy. The project
would utilize solar
modules connected
in series to form
long rows. The rows
of modules would
then be connected
together via com-
biners, cables, and
switchboards. The
configuration of mul-
tiple rows can vary
depending on the
equipment type and
topography.
Strings of solar
modules would be
mounted on sin-
gle-axis tracker sys-
tems that optimize
electricity produc-
tion by rotating the
solar modules to
follow the path of
t h e s u n t h ro u g h -
out the day. As the
solar modules turn
throughout the day,
the height of their
top edges will shift
a c c o rd i n g l y. Th e
solar modules would
have a maximum
h e i g h t o f 14 f e e t
when rotated to their
full extent. Each
t ra c k e r w o u l d b e
supported by mul-
tiple steel posts,
which could be
round hollow posts
or pile-type posts.
Th e s t e e l p o s t s
would be installed
by drilling 6” holes
into shallow bedrock
(surface to 3 feet
of soil) and driving
posts into the bed-
rock holes.
´
Low volt-
age cabling would
connect the solar
modules of each
tracker string in se-
ries and combine
multiple strings to a
single combiner box.
Cabling from multi-
ple combiner boxes
would connect to a
single inverter, which
would convert the
direct current to al-
ternating current and
connect to the above
g ro u n d o r b u r i e d
collection system.
´The project would
utilize either the
c u r re n t B i g H o r n
operation and main-
tenance (O&M)
building, or a new
5,000-square-foot
O&M building within
the siting area.
The project would
use existing roads
to the extent practi-
cable. New access
roads would be con-
structed in accor-
dance with the Klick-
itat County Code
Title 12 standards.
A 8-feet chain
link perimeter fence
would enclose the
solar energy genera-
tion facility.
´The project would
be connected to the
existing Big Horn
W ind Farm 230-kV
Gen-Tie line, which
runs on the east side
of Big Horn Road.
The Big Horn gen-tie
line connects to the
larger energy grid via
BPA’s Spring Creek
switchyard located
northwest of the
Project.
Final solar mod-
ules configuration
would be sited in
accordance with
industry standards
and safety measures
and environmental
constraints identified
during this EIS pro-
cess.
