LCG, September 12, 2025--Entergy announced yesterday that the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) approved Entergy Texas’ proposal to build two efficient natural gas-fired power plants to support the region’s rapid growth. The combined electric generating capacity of the two facilities, the Legend Power Station and the Lone Star Power Station, will add over 1,200 MW to the Southeast Texas power grid to support new customer demand, increase reliability and lower costs for all customers. Both facilities are scheduled to commence operations by mid-2028.

New York Awards Solar PV Grants to 76 Projects for 2013
LCG, April 2, 2013--The Governor of New York announced Thursday that $46 million has been awarded under his NY-Sun initiative for large-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) energy projects, which will add 52 MW to New York's solar capacity.
The awards are the first of three rounds of the Competitive PV solicitation, an element of New York?s Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) program. Second round proposals have been received, and proposals for the third round are due August 29, 2013.
This first round of awards are to 28 recipients to finance 76 large-scale solar energy projects across the state that will be located at businesses, factories, municipal buildings and other larger commercial and industrial companies, with the intention that the power generated is used on-site, although surplus power may be delivered to the grid for a credit.
The projects are scheduled to commence operations by year-end. The $46 million grants from New York State will be supplemented by $100 million in private investment.
The NY-Sun Competitive PV Program provides incentives for PV systems larger than 50 kW and is administered by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA). Funding per project is capped at $3 million, and all projects require co-funding.
Last year, the combined efforts of NYSERDA, New York Power Authority (NYPA) and Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) led to the installation of more than 58 MW of PV in the New York. Now, with the planned addition of 52 MW this year, a total of 242 MW of PV has been installed or is under development as part of NY-Sun.
