Avangrid starts construction of 240 MW True North Solar Farm in Texas

Avangrid has started the construction of the 240 MW AC True North solar photovoltaic project located in Falls County, Texas, USA. 

True North, Avangrid’s first solar farm in Texas, is expected to reach commercial operations by early 2025. During its construction and operation, True North will create over 200 local jobs and is expected to pay over US$40 million in property taxes over 25 years in this state, in which the company already operates more than 1,250 MW of onshore wind facilities.

Since 2020, Meta’s global operations have been supported by 100% renewable energy. The True North project will support Meta’s upcoming data center in neighboring Temple, their second data center facility in Texas.
