Yes, there are places in the United States where the sun is likely to shine on an un-obscured basis far more often than in other places, and transmission via HVDC lines (rather than AC) has materially less loss over long distances (and is convenient for solar since a solar cell generates DC power in the first place; as such it requires only one conversion, to AC at the receiving end, if HVDC transmission is used.)
A graph indicates that for a 2GW transmission line DC is cheaper than AC over distances greater than about 700 km, and for a 1200 km line the cost would be around US$ 550m.
