California's Clean Power Alliance has approved a 20-year power purchase agreement with developer Avantus for a 200 MW solar project paired with an 800 MWh battery storage system. The Rexford 2 project, located in Tulare County, is expected to come online by May 2029 and is designed to provide long-term fixed pricing and grid reliability.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
Community Choice Aggregators in California are buying grid reliability, not just renewable power. If your project is solar-only, you are not competitive; you must bundle it with four-hour battery storage to win these long-term contracts.
