Old Jackson Solar

Harnessing the Sun for Van Zandt County

The Old Jackson Solar project will bring an immediate and long-term economic boost to Van Zandt County, while providing affordable, clean, and renewable electricity to Texas at times when it is most needed.

The project will be built about seven miles southwest of Canton on private land. Construction is expected to begin in summer 2019 and operations during the summer of 2020.

Working with communities and respecting local cultures helps to develop projects that better fit the needs of the communities that host them. We believe in engaging local stakeholders, addressing and incorporating feedback, and furthering the local benefits of our projects.

If you have any questions or information to share with the project team, please reach out to us by phone, email, or our local office, opening in March 2019.
