planned

The Tapaderos solar project is a 2,600-acre solar power facility with a capacity of 300 megawatts and 200 megawatts of battery storage. It is located seven miles west of Eliasville in Young County, Texas. The project is in the development stage, with environmental impact studies completed and grid interconnect approvals obtained. Construction is estimated to take one year, with an expected commercial operation date in the fourth quarter of 2028. The project includes plans for local hiring, safety measures, and environmental protections, including removal and land restoration if the project is abandoned.
