500MW Floating Solar Project in Texas

planned

Diamond Infrastructure Solutions has granted Third Pillar Solar exclusive access to its Texas reservoirs to evaluate the feasibility of designing, developing, and deploying utility-scale floating solar projects with a capacity of up to 500 MW. The project aims to utilize existing artificial water bodies to generate power and reduce freshwater evaporation by up to 15%, avoiding the use of agricultural or developable land. The total investment could reach $700 million, covering feasibility studies, design, construction, and operation by the end of the decade.
