[Project No. 15400-000]
Issaquena Green Power; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and
Competing Applications
On April 2, 2025, Issaquena Green Power, filed an application for a
preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act
(FPA), proposing to study the feasibility of the Yellow Bend
Hydrokinetic Energy Project to be located on the Mississippi River in
Desha and Chicot Counties, Arkansas, and Bolivar County, Mississippi.
The sole purpose of a preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant the
permit holder priority to file a license application during the permit
term. A preliminary permit does not authorize the permit holder to
perform any land-disturbing activities or otherwise enter upon lands or
waters owned by others without the owners' express permission.
The proposed Yellow Bend Hydrokinetic Energy Project would consist
of: (1) up to 504 hydrokinetic turbine generator units, arranged into
84 arrays, typically six units per array with two units wide and three
units long, with an installed capacity of 50.4 megawatts; (2) a mooring
system to anchor each turbine-generator to the riverbed; (3) four shore
stations, spaced 2 to 4 kilometers apart along the riverbank and each
serving approximately 21 arrays; and (4) four primary 34.6 kilovolt,
three-phase transmission lines, with a combined length of approximately
15 miles, connecting the shore stations to the existing substation. The
project would have a total installed capacity of 50.4 megawatts and an
average annual generation of 397,310 megawatt-hours.
