Ganado Solar
Enel Green Power · Jackson County · ERCOT
Ganado Solar is a co-located solar and battery facility in Jackson County, Texas. EIA's May 2026 inventory lists a 150.5 MW photovoltaic generator entering service in October 2023 and a separate 70.5 MW battery entering service in March 2024 under Plant ID 67284, both operated by Enel Green Power Ganado Solar LLC. Enel describes the broader solar project as 208 MWdc and identifies Nestlé as the sole tax-equity investor and purchaser of all renewable-electricity attributes under a 15-year agreement. The 221 MW shown here is the sum of separate solar and storage power ratings, not simultaneous net generation.
