At more than 600 megawatts…the Frye Solar Plant has more power capacity than the town it operates in has official residents. Located on almost six square miles, about an hour north of Lubbock in Kress, Texas - population 592 - the project is a microcosm of the energy industry expansion occurring throughout the Lone Star State. In return for a lease to construct huge energy infrastructure projects, a few landowners get a nice pay day, but what benefit do they bring to the area as a whole? And what about electricity bills for the plant's residential neighbors? Surely those go down, right? All that and more on the next episode of Phases and Stages: The Texas Energy Story.
