Madrid headquartered Repsol has achieved commercial operations at its 825 MW Pinnington solar project in Texas. The facility is now the largest single renewable project to reach commercial operation in the ERCOT market. This project was developed by Repsol and engineered and built by Black & Veatch along with its subsidiary Overland Contracting Inc. Pinnington has reached commercial operation 2.5 times faster than comparable renewable megaprojects. The facility includes around 1.5 million solar panels and it is expected to save about one million tons of CO₂ emissions annually.
