BAES Infrastructure and Black & Veatch at present have accomplished the development of two utility-scale solar tasks – Crown and Sol – in central Texas’ Falls County.
Commercial operations are anticipated to start this month with a mixed capability of 270 MW DC.
Both tasks have executed a power buy settlement with LyondellBasell to offtake 80% of the output.
The building of those tasks concerned the set up of greater than 600,000 photovoltaic modules and over 650,000 man-hours labored, with Black & Veatch performing the engineering, procurement, and building providers.
“In addition to underscoring BAES Infrastructure’s forward thinking in the energy transition, this project demonstrates our commitment to leveraging our deep expertise in clean energy in ways that achieve our clients’ decarbonization goals,” says Black & Veatch Chairman and CEO Mario Azar.
