Meherrin Solar LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable, has provided to the Department of Environmental Quality a notice of intent to submit the necessary documentation for a permit by rule for a small renewable energy project (solar) in Brink, Virginia, pursuant to Virginia Regulation 9VAC15-60. The project has increased in size since the previous Notice of Intent was published. The project is located on the east and west side of Pine Logging Road and south of Brink Road in Greensville County. The project will be sited on roughly 840 acres across multiple parcels. The solar array will connect up to 60 Megawatts Alternating Current (AC) to Dominion Virginia Power’s grid via a new 115kV substation built off of a nearby Dominion owned transmission line. The project will conceptually use 215,000 395W standard photovoltaic solar panels on a single axis tracker to follow the sun throughout the day. NOTE: This project was previously noticed in the Virginia Register of Regulations on July 24, 2017.
