SCOR backs major renewable energy project developed by Terra-Gen

French reinsurer SCOR backs the Edwards Sanborn Solar and Battery Storage Project in Kern County, California, developed by Terra-Gen, underscoring its commitment to renewable energy and a sustainable future.

Construction of the Edwards Sanborn solar facility, covering over 4,600 acres, began in 2020. Its initial phases became operational in 2022 and 2023, and in 2024, the facility received the Presidential Federal Sustainability Award for its substantial contribution to advancing carbon-free electricity.

The project currently has a solar energy capacity of 807 megawatts and battery storage capacity of more than three gigawatt hours, enabling it to provide up to 1,300 MW of power to the grid, thereby strengthening California’s renewable energy infrastructure.

Future phases will add 2,000 MW of solar and energy storage to the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) grid. Once complete, the entire Edwards Sanborn project will contribute up to 3.35 gigawatts of solar storage, solidifying its role as a cornerstone of sustainable energy production in the region.

The project highlights the potential of large-scale renewable energy initiatives. As Terra-Gen continues to expand, the facility will help California meet its clean energy goals and set a global standard for future renewable energy projects.

With the backing of SCOR, the project is well-positioned to make a lasting impact on the renewable energy landscape.
