Savion today announced the start of commercial operation of Kiowa County Solar Project (KCSP) in Kiowa County, Oklahoma. The 100-MW solar facility is the company’s first project to be developed, constructed and owned by Savion in the state.
Construction began in August 2023 and concluded in December 2024 on the 1,235-acre project, which includes more than 189,000 bifacial solar panels. A long-term PPA has been executed with a Fortune 100 technology company for offtake of the facility’s full capacity.
Located in Southwest Oklahoma, adjacent to the town of Snyder, the solar project is expected to produce enough energy to power approximately 21,000 Oklahoma homes annually over the next 40 years. The project will interconnect into an AEP substation and connect to the Southwest Power Pool.
SOLV Energy handled EPC work for the site, and Shell Renewable Asset Management International (SRAMI) is overseeing asset management.
“Bringing Kiowa County Solar Project online advances Savion’s operating asset footprint and underscores our mission to own and operate solar facilities that contribute to the U.S. power grid clean energy infusion,” said Nick Lincon, president of Savion. “Launching this project marks another milestone on Savion’s journey to become an independent power producer, with more facilities coming.”
