Samsung C&T Renewables has entered a groundbreaking alliance with Sunraycer Renewables, targeting a 3GW solar and energy storage system (ESS) endeavor in Texas. While exact financial terms remain private, the initiative anticipates powering approximately 600,000 US households annually.
The agreement encompasses the development and sale of a consortium of 15 projects spread across various stages of progress throughout the expansive Texan landscape. Leveraging its expertise, Samsung C&T, the renewable energy arm of Samsung C&T Corp. in the US, will facilitate assessments and acquire permits required for the solar plant construction.
Sunraycer, a prominent US-based renewable energy firm specializing in asset acquisition and joint development, embraces the opportunity to spearhead these revolutionary projects. Six of the 15 initiatives are solar-based, boasting an impressive combined capacity of approximately 1 GW. In contrast, the remaining nine projects will focus on dynamic energy storage systems (ESS), reaching a staggering capacity of around 2GW.
Spanning an impressive area of 6,100 acres or nearly 25 square kilometers, the 3GW undertaking possesses the remarkable potential to power approximately 600,000 US households annually. Samsung C&T, the construction subsidiary of the Samsung Group, pledges a range of comprehensive development-linked services, encompassing thorough evaluations and necessary licensing acquisitions.
While the exact financial terms remain undisclosed, both Samsung C&T Renewables and Sunraycer are eager to promptly commence project development with the goal of initiating commercial operations between 2025 and 2026.
This partnership fortifies Samsung C&T's position in the American renewable energy market, serving as a solid foundation for further expansion. The company's wide-ranging energy portfolio, from solar photovoltaics to ESS, stands at an impressive 16.2GW, with 14.9GW in the US and 1.3GW in Australia.
Samsung C&T plans to bolster its solar farms and ESSs in the United States and Australia to a staggering 25GW by 2025.
