Webberville Solar

Travis County, Texas
Project Capacity: 30 MW
26,400 I-beams supplied by SunSteel

On 380 acres approximately 15 miles east of outside of Austin, Texas this solar farm contains 127,000 solar panels. The solar farm will deploy 270W photovoltaic (PV) modules and will deliver 30 MW of electricity to Austin Energy, helping reach their 35% renewable energy goal. The $100 million dollar privately owned and operated farm can generate enough electricity to power 5,000 homes.

“We partnered with WTEC/SunSteel from day one as we knew that few players in the industry could meet the demanding schedule and quality standards required to successfully execute one of the largest PV solar fields in North America. SunSteel stepped up to the plate and delivered in support of our 24 hour pile driving operation. As a result we were able to exceed our clients’ expectations, and quickly get ahead and stay ahead of the tracker installation. 27,000 piles of varying lengths, designed, procured, delivered, and installed in less than 3 months – An outstanding job, by an outstanding team! We look forward to our next partnering opportunity…”
