Advanced Power, an independent power producer, aims to introduce a solar facility named Eldora Energy to Matagorda County. This solar and battery storage facility will provide clean power to Houston and Freeport. County officials have been contacted for local regulations, which currently don’t exist. The project is in the design phase, planning to include solar panels, battery storage, and more. Commercial operations are expected to begin in 2025. Advanced Power’s first completed project, Cutlass Solar, is in Houston.
