(Houston Public Media) An under-construction solar farm south of Houston is expected to add 195 megawatts of electricity to Texas’ power grid – enough to power about 32,000 homes – by the end of this year.
Boston-based Swift Current Energy announced Tuesday it had closed financing for its Tres Bahias Solar project along the Gulf Coast in Calhoun County, which is between Houston and Corpus Christi. Construction is underway for the solar farm, which is expected to be operational later this year, according to the company.
