    Boise, Idaho (ots/PRNewswire) - Clenera and SRP today announced a 20-year Power
    Purchase Agreement (PPA) between SRP and Clenera's affiliate, CO Bar Solar LLC.
    This PPA represents the utility's largest standalone solar power plant currently
    under development northwest of Flagstaff, Arizona. CO Bar Solar is scheduled to
    be commercially operational in 2024 and will deliver between 440 and 480
    megawatts (MWDC) of renewable energy to SRP (http://www.srpnet.com/) customers.
    Clenera (http://www.clenera.com/) , a developer of large-scale solar and storage
    projects, and a subsidiary of Enlight Renewable Energy LTD (TASE: ENLT), will
    construct and operate CO Bar Solar.

    This project is one of many that support SRP in its long-term decarbonization
    goals. It will also help SRP meet its expanded commitment to add 2,025 MWAC of
    new utility-scale solar resources by 2025.

    "SRP is pleased to partner with Clenera to add this substantial solar resource
    as part of our 'all of the above' strategy to meet near-term power generation
    needs," said Mike Hummel. "The CO Bar Solar power plant is an incredible clean
    energy resource that will support SRP customers and help us take a significant
    step towards our decarbonization goals."

    CO Bar Solar will occupy up to 2,400 acres of private land in Coconino County
    and construction is expected to begin in 2023. Over the course of the 18-month
    construction timeline, it is expected that approximately 550 construction jobs
    will created, with many being local. Once complete, CO Bar Solar will generate
    enough power to meet the needs of 80,000 homes, while offsetting 1 billion
    pounds of carbon dioxide emissions each year.

    Clenera's Vice President of Business Development, Jared McKee, said of the
    partnership: "We are excited to be working with SRP to develop one of the
    largest solar projects in Arizona. Clenera has historically paved the way for
    renewable energy in the state, and CO Bar Solar is yet another example of
    progress being made in Arizona's clean energy sector. We thank SRP for their
    partnership to make this opportunity possible."

    Including this addition and others, SRP expects that nearly 50 percent of the
    retail energy it delivers to its customers will come from carbon free resources
    by 2025. These new renewable energy resources contribute to SRP's 2035 goals to
    reduce carbon intensity by 65 percent in 2035 and by 90 percent in 2050 from
    2005 levels.
