SB Energy Global’s Orion I, Orion II and Orion III solar projects (Orion Solar Belt), located in Milam County, Texas, have reached commercial operation.
The projects total 875 MW and utilize 1.3 million modules, manufactured by First Solar at its Perrysburg, Ohio facility. The 22,800 tons of structural steel for the project is sourced from Gerdau steel mills located in Midlothian, Texas and Cartersville, Ga. The projects include Nextracker smart solar trackers. SB Energy selected Blattner to provide the EPC services for the project. Most of the steel for the Orion Solar Belt was sourced from Gerdau’s steel mill, located in Midlothian.
Company leadership was joined by U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm, state and local officials, suppliers, anchor customer Google and investors to celebrate the milestone.
“When it comes to actualizing American jobs and providing power to the world’s largest energy users, SB Energy is committed to creating the roadmap,” says Rich Hossfeld, SB Energy co-CEO.
“We are thankful for the support from Secretary Jennifer Granholm and the many federal, local and statewide leaders, as well as Google. We hope the Orion Solar Belt serves as a catalyst for growing investments in a robust American-made supply chain for solar.”
SB Energy’s projects are delivering electricity to the Texas grid and helping power Google’s data centers in Ellis County and its Dallas cloud region.

Keep in mind that “removing Trump from office” and “stop talking about Trump” are two different events.
It’s quite possible that a Democrat-controlled congress could remove him from power within the coming months. But think about the damage he’s done to our nation and the path to repair it. Think about the war, the trade deals, the economic policies, our relationships with our allies, the racism, our erstwhile position as leader in world democracy, and the degradation in public health, education, and environmental responsibility.
We’ll be talking about Trump as long as an organized human civilization is functioning on this planet.
To the a
uthor of the meme here, I would suggest that hate and ignorance are far more aggressive forms of cancer.
Yes, Hegseth and RFK, Jr. will be gone, but I think what’s going to happen first is the decapitation of the snake itself, i.e., the removal of Trump from the presidency.
Based on the news on social media, this could happen via the 25th Amendment, based on Trump’s mental deterioration. In my view, that’s a shame. If he’s not criminally prosecuted, this nation will be deprived of letting the American people and the rest of the world know that rule of law still matters in the United States.
