Nova Clean Energy has secured interconnection agreements and contracts for high-voltage equipment for a 1GW wind power portfolio in Texas. Construction is set to begin in late 2025, with power delivery anticipated by the winter of 2026. This development comes as Texas grapples with record electricity demand, largely driven by expanding industries and population growth.
The portfolio consists of multi-phase wind projects located in the Delaware Basin and central Gulf Coast, regions strategically positioned to support rising energy demands from the oil, gas, petrochemicals, green fuels, and data center sectors. Nova's president, Ben Pratt, highlighted the importance of timely project completion, stating, “Demand growth in Texas only shows signs of accelerating, and ‘lead time to power' is now a major concern for many large customers. Nova is proud to play a role in delivering clean native power where and when the Texas market needs it most.”
In addition to wind energy, the projects will feature co-located battery storage, a key element across much of Nova's 7GW national development pipeline. Currently, wind comprises over half of Nova's project portfolio, with the remainder divided between solar power and battery storage solutions.
Alongside the wind portfolio, Nova is finalizing similar agreements for 500MW of solar and storage capacity in Texas. Since its inception in 2022, Nova, backed by majority owner Bluestar Energy Capital and co-investor Great Bay Renewables, has swiftly grown to establish a renewable footprint across 10 U.S. states.
