Vesper Energy completes installation of 600-MW Texas solar project

Renewable energy developer Vesper Energy installed the final module on its Hornet Solar project in Swisher County, Texas. Composed of more than 1.36 million PV panels generating 600 MWAC of power, Hornet Solar is installed over six square miles.

Once fully operational, the Hornet Solar project will deliver enough renewable energy to power 160,000 homes annually.

“The seamless coordination between our team and our EPC partner, Blattner, has enabled us to remain ahead of schedule and on budget while ensuring quality throughout the process,” said Juan Suarez, Co-CEO at Vesper Energy. “Most notably, the team accomplished this task with zero recordable injuries, underscoring a commitment to safety and excellence.”

The Hornet Solar project features bifacial photovoltaic modules mounted on a single-axis tracking system. The project is interconnected to Oncor Electric’s transmission system within ERCOT and is contracted to provide power to four off-take partners through individual virtual power purchase agreements.

The Hornet Solar project remains on track to reach full commercialization by spring 2025.
