The facility, set to commence construction in the coming months, is expected to generate nearly 300 jobs during the building phase. Once operational by 2027, it will deliver around 450GWh of electricity annually, enough to power approximately 43,000 homes [1].
Ferrovial Energy CEO María José Esteruelas underscored the project's community benefits, stating, "This project is a strong example of how infrastructure investment can directly benefit communities. As data centers multiply and energy needs continue to increase, this facility will bring lasting value to the region by creating jobs, supporting local services, and strengthening energy reliability" [1].
This Texas project complements Ferrovial's existing 257MW DC plant in Leon County and aligns with the company's expansion into the energy sector. Additionally, Ferrovial is nearing completion of a 72MW PV plant in the Houston area for its client, X-Elio, and has plans to develop three new PV plants in Spain's Murcia region in collaboration with TotalEnergies and Soltec [1].
