Located just outside Ames, Iowa, this 96.47-acre m/l property presents a prime location for renewable energy development. Existing infrastructure and proximity to a growing market make this property a rare opportunity for solar, wind, or battery storage projects.
A 161 kV substation and transmission line operated by ITC Midwest are situated just south of the property, enabling cost-effective and efficient grid connection. ITC Midwest plans to expand this substation by the end of 2025 to improve reliability and increase capacity. Lower-voltage transmission lines run along the eastern boundary and through the center of the property, creating opportunities for community solar projects. The property sits just off Interstate 35, providing excellent access for construction and maintenance. The land is also relatively flat and sits outside any floodplain, offering ample buildable acreage. With a growing population and expanding economy, Ames is a continuously expanding market with plenty of demand for new energy development.
