Texas gets another solar farm

Signal Energy Constructors

 

The growing number of solar farms in Texas increased this week with the completion of a project near Lubbock by Signal Energy, a firm based in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Its 418 megawatt Juno Solar project is now producing enough renewable energy to power the equivalent of 40,000 homes announced the company.

“Building solar projects of this size during a pandemic and the subsequent strains that it created on resources and logistics require a special determination and expertise to deliver a high-quality project safely and on time,” said Ryan Johnson, President of Signal Energy. “The Signal team along with our innovative customer, SB Energy, and our great trade partners, did just that.”

The solar array is located in Borden County and was built for SB Energy, a wholly owned subsidiary of SoftBank Group Corp.
It is considered to be a leading utility-scale solar, energy storage, and technology platform.
Abhijeet Sathe, Co-CEO of SB Energy, said “We are thankful for our construction partner, Signal Energy, for their creative approach to designing and building the Juno Solar Project, which was completed safely and on schedule. Their perseverance through the pandemic, extreme weather events in Texas, and other obstacles thrown in their way shows their total dedication to safety, quality, and to SB Energy.”
