Located in California's Imperial County, Midway I is 67MW and has an executed power purchase agreement (PPA) with Pacific Gas & Electric.

We are pleased to now start construction of Midway I and Midway II, two solar power plants that will deliver economical, clean and renewable energy."

Ryan Kelley, Imperial County Supervisor, District 4, said, "Solar Frontier's solar projects will generate hundreds of direct jobs and employ local workers in Imperial County, California. The projects will drive significant dollars in local sales and property taxes and contribute to the local economy."
