Adapture Renewables, Inc., a prominent provider of large-scale solar and energy storage solutions, has completed and commissioned its latest solar project in Hunt County, Texas.
Solar Facility to Power Fortune 50’s Net-Zero Goals
The 67 MW solar facility will produce clean, renewable energy to address the increasing electricity demand driven by data center expansion. It will support a Fortune 50 corporate off-taker in achieving its broader sustainability objectives, including its commitment to net-zero targets.
The project reached commercial operation three months ahead of schedule, marking Adapture Renewables' debut in Virtual Power Purchase Agreements (VPPA). Overcoming obstacles such as supply chain disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2021 Winter Storm Uri, the company completed the project successfully through strategic material procurement and effective collaboration with partners.
Solar Project to Support Growing Energy Demands
This 25-acre project is in the ERCOT market and features over 130,000 solar modules. It is designed to generate approximately 120 GWh of clean energy annually — enough to power around 12,500 homes. Its development comes at a pivotal time for renewable energy, as the grid faces mounting pressure from rapid data center expansion, fueled by AI and cloud computing, and the rising demand for EV charging infrastructure. Projects like these are essential to addressing these challenges and providing reliable and cost-effective energy solutions for businesses and communities.
Thomas Houghton, CEO at Adapture Renewables, said: “We are proud to see our latest Texas project reach this significant milestone. Completing the project ahead of schedule reflects the hard work of our team and partners and highlights our commitment to advancing renewable energy infrastructure across the country.”
As estimated by a 2021 NREL model, the solar project generated over 150 local jobs during construction — contributing more than $77 million to the Hunt County economy. This development expands Adapture Renewables' portfolio of clean energy solutions, helping corporate and industrial energy buyers meet their renewable energy targets while enhancing grid reliability.
