Nevada Power, a utility owned by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, has signed a deal to build more than 1GW of new large-scale solar in the US, with power purchase agreements starting as low as $US21.55/MWh, a record low in the US.
The stunning low PPA prices locked in for the six new solar farms – more than half of which will be co-located with battery storage, priced in separately – are documented in a state government document published this month.

Among those projects, the 200MW Dodge Flat Solar Farm, to be paired with a 50MW/200MWh battery system, secured a PPA of $27.51/MWh for 25 years; and the 250MW Copper Mountain Solar farm signed a contract for $21.55 for 25 years.

LOL and how many minutes of power will the particular batteries deliver? The wind across all of Australia has been dead for 8 hours now. The UK has just done some 3 weeks without any real wind power. Luckey they are connected to the French nuclear grid.

Will we connect to PNG as our backup? No battery will last us 3 weeks.
