Qcells USA Corp., a subsidiary of South Korea’s Hanwha Qcells, has partnered with Nofar USA to develop and construct two battery energy storage projects with a combined capacity of 350 megawatts (MW) in Texas, according to a March 20 news release.
The 230-MW Bracero Pecan project is located in Reeves County in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas’ (ERCOT) West region, while the 120-MW Fairway project is located in Freestone County in ERCOT’s North region, Nofar said in the release.
“These well-located projects are strategically positioned for rapid deployment, ensuring both a swift time-to-market and strong value creation for our shareholders,” said Allon Raveh, executive chairman of Nofar USA.
The projects are in the final stages of interconnection approvals, the release said. Plans are for Bracero Pecan to interconnect with power company AEP, and Fairway will interconnect with energy transmission company Oncor. Both projects are expected to go online in 2027.
