A coalition of solar developers and buyers says a state regulatory commission didn't follow the rules when it halted the procurement of 770 megawatts of new solar power.
The commission's action came amid ongoing efforts to expand solar capacity in the state, where developers have been seeking to meet growing electricity demand with renewable sources.
Key to the dispute is the 770-megawatt procurement that the commission stopped, a figure that represents a significant portion of the state's planned solar additions for the coming years.
The coalition is appealing the decision, and if successful, could restore the procurement of 770 MW, accelerating the state's renewable portfolio and potentially influencing energy supply dynamics for the region.
