A giant 30-megawatt solar panel farm project in Texas. This facility, the largest solar power plant in the state and the country, will generate at least 1.4 billion kWh of power over 25 years with 127,000 panels, preventing the emission of 800 million kg of greenhouse gases.

☀️ Solar Energy Giant in Texas: Austin Energy Plant

Austin Energy, which built a 30-megawatt solar panel farm in Texas, began generating electricity on December 20, 2011. The project is the largest solar power generation plant in both the state and the country.

Project Scope and Technology

• A total of 127,000 solar panels were used at the plant.
• These panels have a system that tracks the sun’s position to maximize production.
• With this project, Austin Energy has become the country’s largest solar electricity generation company.

Environmental and Economic Impact

The project has significant long-term environmental and economic benefits:

• The plant has a 25-year purchase guarantee.
• It is expected to produce at least 1.4 billion kWh of power over 25 years.
• Thanks to this production, the amount of greenhouse gases that will be prevented from being released into the environment will be 800 million kg.
