Completion of the Mohave Energy Park project has and will continue to afford short-term benefits to local labor force and also to the local economy. The local economy will benefit from an increased need for housing, food, and services to support the overall construction workforce.
The construction process will include local, cost-competitive vendors of commodities and rental equipment. Any employees traveling for construction purposes will boost local economies through their travel, lodging, and meals. The project is expected to introduce approximately $10 million in local economic lift during the construction phase.
Additionally, on a long-term basis, AEPCO expects to employ up to five full-time equivalent jobs to operate, secure, and maintain the facility.
The Mohave Energy Park represents a substantial investment in the Mohave area and will generate property taxes that are estimated to be nearly $5 million from 2025 through 2036.
