Silicon Ranch to build state’s biggest solar projectAbout $100M will be invested in TVA contract


Downtown-based solar energy venture Silicon Ranch has bought 330 acres just north of Memphis after securing a 20-year Tennessee Valley Authority power-purchase agreement.

Silicon Ranch, which is run by former Tennessee Economic and Community Development commissioner Matt Kisber, will build a 53-megawatt solar project at the Naval Support Activity Mid-South site in Millington. (A rendering is above.) In addition to its land purchase, the company also will lease 72 acres of base land from the Navy.

The project will be the largest of its kind in Tennessee, featuring about 580,000 panels and an investment value of about $100 million.

“TVA is committed to providing renewable energy in a way that best serves our local power company customers and the nine million people of the Tennessee Valley,” said Van Wardlaw, the utility’s executive vice president and chief external relations officer. “This solar project supports our commitment to a diversified and cleaner energy portfolio, which includes energy efficiency and competitively priced renewable energy.”

Silicon Ranch bought its 330 acres from the Millington Industrial Development Board. In addition to the Department of the Navy, Memphis Light Gas and Water also is involved in the project.

Launched in 2008, Silicon Ranch is chaired by former Gov. Phil Bredesen. The company in 2014secured a $140 million investment from a group led by Greystone Infrastructure Fund of Canada.
