Soleil Renewable Energy announced that its California-based flagship utility-scale solar and storage project has advanced into the execution phase.
The 880 MWdc solar and 460 MW battery storage project is designed to deliver reliable, dispatchable clean energy at unprecedented scale and efficiency.
Unlike traditional solar developments, the company is focusing on building grid-relevant energy infrastructure that can support peak demand, smooth volatility, and deliver dependable power through integrated storage.
The project is expected to deliver regional benefits, including significant construction and technical employment, long-term local economic activity, responsible land stewardship, and end-of-life restoration planning.
Soleil is led jointly by Ramak Sedigh, the company’s founder, CEO, and managing director, and Zaya Younan; Younan brings engineering and execution expertise that has helped strengthen Soleil’s long-term strategtic vision.
“I founded Soleil with the intention of building real infrastructure—not concepts,” said Ramak Sedigh, in a statement. “With Zaya Younan joining me in leading this platform, I have absolute confidence in the success of this venture. His track record of entering complex industries and redefining them through engineering, execution, and scale speaks for itself.”
Soleil plans to provide public dates as the project progresses, including EPC and battery integrator selection, engineering and design package completion, permitting milestones, and third-party diligence.
Zaya Younan added, “Renewable energy is not a trend—it is critical infrastructure. Soleil is being built with the same rigor applied to world-class systems: reliability, efficiency, and long-term performance. Ramak and I share the same philosophy—build it right, build it to last, and execute without compromise.”
