According to a recent LinkedIn post from Golden State Clean Energy, the company’s Valley Clean Infrastructure Plan was featured on the “This Week in Cleantech” podcast in an interview with Jeff St. John of Canary Media Inc. The post highlights that the plan envisions transforming 136,000 acres of fallowed land in California’s Westlands Water District into 21 gigawatts of solar and battery storage capacity.

The post suggests this would represent one of the largest integrated solar and energy storage developments globally, aimed at supplying reliable clean energy within California. For investors, the scale described could imply substantial long-term capital requirements, potential for multi-phase development revenues, and increased strategic relevance in California’s clean energy transition.
If executed as outlined in the discussion referenced by the post, the initiative could position Golden State Clean Energy as a key player in utility-scale renewables and grid resiliency solutions in the state. It may also attract partnerships with utilities, infrastructure investors, and technology providers, while exposing the company to permitting, interconnection, and policy risks typical of large energy infrastructure projects.
