Richmond-based Dominion Resources has acquired a 20-megawatt solar facility in California from E.ON North America.

Alamo Solar is expected to qualify for the federal investment tax credit.

Dominion's total contracted solar generating portfolio consists of 384 megawatts in operation or under development in California, Connecticut, Georgia, Indiana, Tennessee and Utah.

The acquisition of Alamo brings Dominion's solar portfolio in California to 241 megawatts.

The company also plans to develop 400 megawatts of utility solar generation in Virginia by 2020.

Dominion, the parent company of Dominion Virginia Power, has a portfolio of approximately 24,600 megawatts of generation, 12,200 miles of natural gas transmission, gathering and storage pipeline, and 6,455 miles of electric transmission lines.
