May 24, 2024--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Solar power activity is heating up around the Greater Houston, Texas, area. In some cases, these solar plants are accompanied by battery energy storage systems (BESS), but in addition, a standalone BESS unit is being constructed within Houston itself. Industrial Info is tracking more than $3.8 billion worth of solar power and BESS projects in Harris County, home to Houston, in addition to five surrounding counties.
