With 270 megawatts of clean energy leading the way, the Blevins Solar & Storage Project with Geronimo Power will advance grid reliability and support communities across Texas with dependable, renewable power. Mortenson, Geronimo and additional project partners recently celebrated the project’s significant progress at a community-focused event. The project will include 360 megawatt-hours of battery storage and deliver lasting benefits to the Falls County community. Over the course of construction, our team has worked more than 665,000 hours without a recordable injury, installed 227 miles of cable, and moved more than 500,000 cubic yards of dirt to bring this project to life. Together with our partners, the project created 360 local construction and service jobs and supported various initiatives in the Falls County area that strengthened the community. We are thankful for the collaboration, which reflects our shared commitment to delivering renewable power and meaningful community impact.
Exciting to see so many local jobs created alongside clean energy.
Great job to all involved! Looks like a fun community celebration of an impactful project!
So proud to be a part of this project with some wonderful people.
Well done!
Those stats tell the story, 665,000 hours without a single recordable injury is a serious safety culture, not just a box checked. Moving that much dirt and installing 227 miles of cable while keeping people safe and the schedule on track is no small coordination effort. Curious what you found most challenging on the solar + storage integration side as the project scaled up.
