Southern Star Solar Energy Center

The Southern Star Solar Energy Center is a proposed 200-megawatt solar power generation and 100 MW energy storage facility located in Pueblo County, Colorado. Solar energy is critical to meeting growing demand with reliable, affordable energy, while strengthening local economies, creating jobs, securing American energy independence, and delivering cost savings for consumers. Energy storage technology allows us to store solar energy and deploy it when the power grid needs it most — improving reliability and protecting against price spikes.
