(Reuters) - California energy regulators will hold a workshop on May 9 for private solar power company BrightSource Energy's proposed 500-megawatt Hidden Hills solar power plant in California estimated to cost more than $2.7 billion.
According to releases late Thursday by the California Energy Commission and BrightSource, the project, if approved, will provide power to PG&E Corp under two purchase agreements already approved by state's utility regulators in 2010.
Construction of the Hidden Hills project was expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2014 or the first quarter of 2015 with commercial operation in the first half of 2015.
