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.

McCoy Solar Energy Project Receives Local Approval
LCG, March 19, 2014 - NextEra Energy continues to make progress with the proposed McCoy Solar Energy Project in Southern California. Last week the Riverside County supervisors issued a conditional use permit for a 50-MW photovoltaic (PV) solar array on 477 acres of privately owned land.
The project site is located in Riverside County, approximately 13 miles northwest of Blythe, California, near the Nevada border. The majority of the proposed project will be developed on public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), using over 4,000 acres of BLM land for the expanded, 750-MW solar energy generating facility.
Southern California Edison (SCE) has a power purchase and sale agreement (PPSA) with McCoy Solar, LLC, whose parent company is NextEra Energy Resources, for the output from the initial 250-MW installation, which is anticipated to commence operations later this year.
Last October, it was announced that First Solar will provide Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) services, using First Solar's cadmium telluride (CdTe) PV thin-film modules to build the 250 MW of solar generating capacity.
