Green River Energy Center

Documenting the construction of a solar & battery storage facility in Utah for rPlus Energies

PROJECT BRIEF
rPlus Energies, a Salt Lake City-based renewable energy developer, commissioned me to document the construction of the Green River Energy Center, a 400MW solar + 400MW battery storage facility in central Utah.

Over the course of 2+ years I have conducted quarterly visits to the site to create still images and video that provide progress reports for internal & stakeholder review, as well as creating marketing collateral for the company.

In addition to the quarterly site documentation, I led teams creating stills & video coverage of several notable events including the groundbreaking for the site and the delivery of the first Tesla battery megapacks.

This is an ongoing project.
