Enough to power more households than all of Ector County, TX.
Enough to power all stadium lights for every NFL game for 270 years and offset the use of approximately 865,208 tons of coal.
Hornet Solar is over four times as big as Central Park or to put it in Texas terms, if you double the size of Lake Meredith just northeast of Amarillo, it would be about the size of this project.
Laid end to end it would run from Tulia, TX to just north of the Lubbock airport.
That's one mile longer than the length from the Dallas Farmers Market to the Cowboys Football Stadium.
Enough to provide weather data for an area larger than Big Bend National Park in Brewster County.
If each solar module were a person, the project would be larger than the population of Dallas which has 1.288 million residents (about the population of New Hampshire).

Contributed over 40 years, this amount could fund four state-of-the-art MRI machines.
