该设施由 Priority Power 开发并拥有，预计将降低成本并最大限度地减少 HighPeak 的温室气体排放。
米德兰盆地石油生产商 HighPeak Energy 和 Priority Power 于 5 月 30 日表示，已在德克萨斯州 Flat Top 作业区投产近 10 兆瓦 (MW) WildHorse 太阳能发电场。
该设施由 Priority Power 开发并拥有，预计将产生足够的电力为近 3,700 个家庭供电，并减少超过 1800 万吨 (MMmt) 二氧化碳排放。太阳能发电场产生的电力将为 HighPeak 的运营提供动力，该公司表示此举将降低成本并最大限度地减少温室气体排放。
HighPeak 总裁迈克·霍利斯 (Mike Hollis) 在一份声明中表示：“该项目产生的 10 兆瓦电力将降低我们的电力成本，使我们免受夏季现货电价飙升的影响，并减少我们的碳足迹。” “ighPeak 一直通过电网为我们的钻机供电，现在我们正在使用西德克萨斯州阳光直接提供的电力进行钻探。”

Developed and owned by Priority Power, the facility is expected to lower costs and minimize HighPeak’s greenhouse gas emissions.
Midland Basin oil producer HighPeak Energy and Priority Power have commissioned the nearly 10-megawatt (MW) WildHorse Solar Farm in the Flat Top operating area in Texas, the companies said May 30.
Developed and owned by Priority Power, the facility in Howard County is expected to produce enough electricity to power nearly 3,700 homes and reduce more than 18 million metric tons (MMmt) of CO2 emissions. Electricity generated at the solar farm will power HighPeak’s operations, a move the company says will lower costs and minimize greenhouse gas emissions.
“The 10 megawatts generated from this project will reduce our power costs, shield us from summer spot power price spikes and reduce our carbon footprint,” HighPeak President Mike Hollis said in a statement. “HighPeak has been energizing our drilling rigs with grid power, and we are now drilling with power directly supplied by West Texas sunshine.”
