National Grid Renewables has executed two power purchase agreements (PPAs) for its Blevins Solar Project, a 270 MW development located in Falls County, Texas.
Blevins is expected to begin construction next year and reach operations in 2025. Once completed, it will be the second National Grid Renewables project located in Falls County.
“Blevins represents our strong belief that renewable energy projects deliver a sustainable and reliable source of power, all while invigorating the local economies and unlocking new potential for both direct and indirect revenue streams,” says Blake Nixon, president of National Grid Renewables. “Projects like Blevins not only benefit Texas with a clean energy solution, but they also provide reliability and security for the overall electrical grid.”
Under the PPAs, Fujifilm has contracted 125 MW of solar, and Bristol Myers Squibb has contracted 145 MW. For this project, Bristol Myers Squibb worked with Edison Energy LLC as an independent advisor, allowing the company to assess long-term implications of its investment.
“Environmental sustainability is an important component of our business strategy and embedded within our enterprise operations,” says Bristol Myers Squibb’s Danielle Menture. “This agreement is another critical step in our journey towards achieving our goal of 100% purchased electricity from renewable sources and supporting the move toward cleaner energy.”
Fujifilm engaged World Kinect Energy Services to identify renewable energy projects that would accelerate its corporate strategy to cover 100% of the company’s total electricity consumption with green energy in the United States and Canada.
Including the Blevins project, National Grid Renewables has a total investment of nearly 1 GW of renewable energy projects in ERCOT, including Great Plains Wind Farm, Noble Solar & Storage Project and Copperhead Solar & Storage Project.

National Grid Renewables Signs PPAs for Blevins Solar Project
Nobody really knows, but ask yourself this: once World War II was over, was Germany still considered a pariah nation “generations” later?
Earlier today, I was sitting near two women whose conversation went like this:
Woman #1: I’m so happy to hear that President Trump will be relocating the Palestinians from Gaza, enabling him to give that land to Israel and establish what he calls the “Riviera of the Middle East” along the eastern shore of the Mediterranean.
Woman #2: Are the Palestinians unhappy in their home?
I’m thinking: Well, I haven’t interviewed any of them personally, but they have been living there since the Bronze Age, about 5000 years ago.
Re: the meme here, I wonder what the people living in the happiest nations on Earth would say.
From the 2026 World Happiness Ranking, here are the top 6:
- Finland (7.76)
- Iceland (7.54)
- Denmark (7.54)
- Costa Rica (7.44)
- Sweden (7.26)
- Norway (7.24)
Notice anything?
They are all social democracies. Their average citizens pay slightly higher taxes, but a) they receive free education and healthcare, and b) there is virtually no poverty.
