Shining Bright: Repsol’s Largest Solar Plant Lights Up Texas Skies
Repsol has just unveiled its colossal solar masterpiece, the Frye Solar plant, nestled in the heart of Kress, Texas. With a staggering 637MW capacity, of which 570MW is already powering up, this solar marvel boasts nearly a million panels, painting the landscape with sustainable energy.
What sets Frye Solar apart is its forward-thinking approach. Repsol has secured an impressive 89% of its output through a long-term power purchase agreement, a strategic move to ensure consistent returns from this green venture.
Federico Toro, Repsol’s chief operating officer for low carbon generation in North America, sees this achievement as a significant step toward the company’s ambitious goal of achieving net zero emissions by 2050. “Our growth ambition in this country is significant,” he adds, highlighting Repsol’s commitment to sustainable energy solutions.
But Frye Solar is just one piece of the puzzle. Repsol’s renewable footprint in Texas extends further with projects like Outpost and Pinnington, contributing to a total capacity of 2091MW. And let’s not forget their existing solar power plants in New Mexico, Jicarilla 1 and 2, backed by 20MW of battery storage, showcasing Repsol’s dedication to clean energy innovation.
Renewables are at the core of Repsol’s decarbonization strategy, and their vision is bold. With plans to invest billions and reach 9000-10,000MW of installed capacity globally by 2027, including a substantial 30% in the United States, Repsol is lighting the way towards a sustainable future.
