Mighty Mississippi Solar is a 1,270-acre, 150 MWAC solar PV facility located near New Madrid, Missouri.

All local and environmental permitting are complete, including a wetlands delineation, a threatened and endangered species review, and a cultural, archaeological, and historical review of the entire site. Mighty Mississippi Solar will use bi-facial solar modules with high-efficiency PV cells that are optimized for utility-scale solar photovoltaic projects. Central inverters will minimize operations and maintenance costs and improve the efficiency of the overall plant. The solar modules will be mounted to single-axis tracking systems that are optimized for use with bi-facial panels to increase the system’s capacity factor.

The project will interconnect to Ameren’s 161 kV transmission system that travels adjacent to the site. The project filed an interconnection application with MISO in 2021 (Queue Position J2155) and expects to sign its Generator Interconnection Agreement late 2025.

Mighty Mississippi Solar has an expected Commercial Operations Date in 2027.
