The completion of a large Solar power generating facility will be
celebrated on the 16th of this month by the San Angelo Chamber of
Commerce. The special ribbon-cutting ceremony will highlight the
completion of the 160 Mega Watt Concho Valley Solar project, a joint
development between Merit SI and Korea Midland Power Company
America. The Chamber partnered with them and the Tom Green
County Commissioners and other entities in making this estimated
170, million dollar capital investment in Tom Green County, a reality.
The solar farm, located south of San Angelo off HWY 277 and Ratliff Road,
houses over 447 thousand solar panels that will introduce energy into
the Texas grid, helping provide power across the state. This project
will serve as a revenue generator for the County and Wall ISD as a
high-value taxable asset.
