Mammoth North is the first phase of Doral’s 1.3GW Mammoth Solar project and is expected to supply power to over 75,000 homes when operational in 2023.

Located on 4,500 acres, it is designed to be a ground-mounted single axis PV system. The company already has long-term power purchase agreement (PPA) in place with AEP Energy Partners.

Doral Renewables is also engaged in developing Mammoth Central and Mammoth South projects.

Once complete, the three projects together will form one of the largest solar farms in the US.
