Fighting Jays Solar Project
AP Solar 2, LLC · Fort Bend County · ERCOT
Fighting Jays Solar is an operating photovoltaic facility in Fort Bend County, Texas. EIA's May 2026 inventory lists Plant ID 62945 as one 227.5 MW generator operated by AP Solar 2, LLC, with service beginning in June 2022. The broader project was sold to a Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners affiliate in July 2020 as a 350 MWac development. That project-level rating is kept separate from the current EIA plant record. The sale announcement also disclosed a long-term physical-power hedge with Shell Energy and CenterPoint substation construction for the ERCOT interconnection.
