Cogentrix Energy is developing a 30 megawatt (MW) High Concentration Photovoltaic (HCPV) power generation facility to be located in Alamosa, Colorado. The Project is one of the first utility-scale HCPV energy generation facilities in the nation and, when completed, will be the largest of its kind in the world. Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCo) facilitated the development of the Project by signing a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with a Cogentrix affiliate under which PSCo will purchase all solar power and related RECs generated by the Project over 20 years. Cogentrix and the U.S. Department of Energy recently announced completion of government-guaranteed financing for the Project. Firm partner Bob Montgomery represented PSCo in connection with that financing. Bob has substantial experience representing developers, equipment manufacturers and power off-takers in connection with PPA's, financings and other commercial transactions involving wind, solar and conventional thermal electric generation facilities.
