Enel Powers Up Texas with a Cutting-Edge Hybrid Solar and Battery Storage Project
Enel North America has officially switched on its latest renewable energy powerhouse in Delta County, Texas, bringing a hybrid solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) online to drive the clean energy transition forward.
What Makes Estonian Solar a Game-Changer?
The Estonian Solar project integrates a 202MW photovoltaic (PV) facility with a 104MW battery energy storage system, delivering a robust and flexible renewable energy solution to support growing energy demands.
With the plant now fully operational, it is expected to generate 499GWh of clean electricity annually—enough to power over 46,000 US households while significantly reducing carbon emissions.
Powering Businesses Towards Decarbonization
Enel has secured power purchase agreements (PPAs) with major industry leaders to support this project, including:
✔ BXP – The largest publicly traded developer, owner, and manager of premier workplaces in the U.S., has secured 21MW of the project’s clean energy capacity.
✔ Capri Holdings Limited – The fashion conglomerate behind Versace, Jimmy Choo, and Michael Kors, has also partnered with Enel to advance its sustainability goals.
“With this new project, Enel continues to deliver new clean power and flexible storage to meet rising demand. The Estonian project illustrates how the private sector will continue to lead the way in the American energy transition.” – Stephen Pike, Head of Enel Green Power North America
A Positive Impact Beyond Energy
🔹 Economic Boost: The construction phase created around 400 jobs, with additional permanent positions for operations and maintenance in the local community.
🔹 Local Revenue Growth: Over the plant’s lifetime, it is expected to generate $23 million in local tax revenue—directly supporting schools and public services in the region.
🔹 A Sustainable Future: The hybrid model ensures grid reliability while advancing corporate decarbonization goals, setting an example for future clean energy projects.
“Through our partnership with Enel, we are supporting the acceleration of the energy transition by adding additional, large-scale clean power capacity.” – Ben Myers, Senior VP of Sustainability at BXP
