The Sandstone solar farm is expected to begin delivering power by the end of 2015 under a 21-year PPA between SPower and SRP. The project is utilizing 182,000 Jinko JKM315P-72 Solar PV modules, Advanced Energy 100NX inverters and ATI v3 single axis trackers which follow the sun.

According to Representative Frank Pratt (AZ), Chairman of the House Energy Committee, "Arizona needs an energy portfolio that is diverse and renewable.  That's why the Sandstone solar project is so important.  It will help SRP expand its energy portfolio with additional reliable, affordable clean energy."
