Arevia Power recently announced that it would host two virtual public meetings to discuss its planned Libra Solar solar energy generation and storage project in Nevada, according to a press release from the U.S Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM).

The two meetings, which will take place over Zoom on Monday, September 20 and Tuesday, September 21, will offer information about the planned project, seek stakeholder feedback and address a variety of topics.

The project aims to connect 700 megawatts of solar photovoltaic production and energy storage to the Ft. Churchill Substation, which is northwest of the project area.

The project area would be on 5,413 acres of public property managed by BLM 7 miles south of Yerington, Nevada.

Arevia Power has already sent an application to BLM for a 30-year grant for the project, which is expected to take at least 12 months to build.

However, certain groups, such as Basin & Range Watch, have expressed concern about the project's effect on local wildlife and public and private land.

"This project will impact pronghorn, mule deer and avian flyways," Basin & Range Watch stated on Facebook, "It will also impact private property and public land access."

One of the company's other projects in the Moapa Valley, The Battle Born Solar Project, has been suspended after BLM received a letter of withdrawal from Arevia in late July after an organized group of residents argued the large installation would be an "eyesore" and would jeopardize popular recreational activities in the area.

The Battle Born Solar Project would have been the largest solar array in the United States, encompassing over 14 square miles, according to the Associated Press.

Additionally, Arevia Power is developing a 7,100-acre Gemini Solar Project in Southern Nevada.
