The Techren Solar Project is a 300 megawatt (MWAC) solar photovoltaic power plant near Boulder City, Nevada that is being developed by 174 Power Global, the US subsidiary of the South Korean company, Hanwha Group. Two phases of the project are currently under construction: the 100 MW Techren 1 began in 2017 and the 200 MW Techren 2 began in 2018. Both projects will use solar panels made with Hanwha's Q-Cells photovoltaics technology.[1]
The project is located on 2,300 acres near the existing 64 MW Nevada Solar One, 150 MW Boulder Solar, and 552 MW Copper Mountain Solar Facilities in the Eldorado Valley. An additional 100 MW is also in planning for development: the 25 MW Techren 3, the 25 MW Techren 4, and the 50 MW Techren 5.[2][3][4]
