Bechtel, a global leader in engineering, construction, and project management, has been selected by Doral Renewables to design and build the Cold Creek Solar+Storage project in Schleicher and Tom Green counties, Texas.
The facility is expected to generate approximately 430 megawatts (MW) of clean energy using more than 850,000 solar modules. The Cold Creek project will also feature a 340 megawatt-hour (MWh) battery energy storage system to capture and store excess energy generated during the day and deliver it to the Texas electricity grid when consumer demand peaks.
“The Cold Creek project highlights the power of an all-of-the-above energy strategy,” said Scott Austin, Bechtel General Manager of Renewables & Clean Power. “Texas continues to lead the nation in blending traditional and renewable resources to strengthen its grid. By combining 430 MW of solar generation with 340 MWh of storage, Cold Creek will make the Texas grid stronger and more reliable for years to come. We are proud to bring Bechtel’s experience to this important project and support Doral Renewables’ mission to deliver reliable, homegrown power to Texas.”
“The Cold Creek project is a major milestone for our company’s growth,”said Jason Van Deusen, Doral Renewables VP of Project Management.“We are thrilled to extend our partnership with Bechtel. The strong relationship forged between the two organizations through collaboration, transparency, and shared values of community engagement, local workforce participation, safety, quality, and environmental stewardship has set the stage for continued success. We are excited to continue this momentum as we embark on another significant project and contribute to the vision of a diverse energy portfolio and resilient grid in America.”
Key highlights of the project include:
Bechtel is building three key phases of the Mammoth Solar program in Indiana for Doral Renewables.
Cold Creek is Bechtel’s second project with Doral Renewables and its fifth utility-scale solar facility in Texas. Across the United States, Bechtel has a robust and growing renewables portfolio at various stages of development and delivery. Scaling to meet demand, Bechtel employs a first-of-its-kind digital hub that enables 100% digital delivery. The platform integrates field data into interactive, map-based visualizations, helping Bechtel build clean energy projects faster and more reliably.
