Bechtel will design and build the “South”, “Central I”, and “Central II” phases, which together will provide 900MW of generating capacity, enough to supply 200,000 homes.
Over the next two years Bechtel will install around 2 million solar panels, half of them made in the US. It will also install power cables and substations.
It called the scheme “one of the nation’s largest solar projects”.
At peak, the project will employ some 1,200 people, 15% of whom would be apprentices.
“A project of this scale depends on strong collaboration with local building trades to ensure access to the skilled workforce needed,” said Scott Austin, Bechtel’s renewables general manager.
When construction is finished, Doral will integrate livestock grazing and crop cultivation around the panels.
