Enel North America and BXP execute PPA for new Texas solar project
In Texas, Enel North America said it has signed a power purchase agreement with BXP, a developer, owner, and manager of premier workplaces in the United States, for a 21-megawatt (MW) portion of the Estonian solar project under construction in Delta County, Texas.
“Enel offers companies a variety of tools to manage energy efficiently and lower their carbon footprint—from clean power contracts to load-side solutions like demand response,” said Paolo Romanacci, head of Enel North America’s renewable energy business, Enel Green Power North America. “Enel is thrilled to grow our relationship with BXP, further enabling their sustainability progress while also supporting new, clean power in ERCOT—a grid that is increasingly reliant on solar power and battery storage.”
“Efforts to advance meaningful decarbonization at BXP have been centered on energy efficiency, electrification, and renewable energy procurement,” said Doug Linde, President, BXP. “By contracting for renewable power that is additional, we are making a positive impact by supporting the growth of renewable energy generation and broader transition to a clean energy future. We are pleased to grow our relationship with Enel as a partner in our sustainability journey.”
Construction is underway on the Estonian solar project, which is expected to come online in late 2024. The 202 MW2 solar facility will be paired with a 104 MW battery energy storage system. The solar project is expected to generate around 499 GWh of clean electricity each year.
