ConEdison owns the 106 MW-AC Texas Solar 7 project, the seventh project in the deal that jump-started large-scale solar in Texas.

It’s a complicated time in the U.S. solar industry, with a booming market for utility-scale solar and increasing public interest, but also collapsed PV module prices and shifts in production.

The move is part of a trend of solar developers adding additional energy management services, referred to as “solar+”.

NextEra is building a second PV project also 70 MW-AC in capacity, which should be online at the end of this month.
