Day-to-day electricity for the Project Horizon campus is generated on the property. Generation is behind-the-meter — the electricity produced on site is consumed on site, by the same project that produces it.
In practice, the campus runs on its own power plant rather than drawing its daily load from the public grid that serves Pecos County homes, schools, and businesses.
Generation source
Initial generation is natural gas. The on-site generation fleet is configured for a multi-source energy architecture as the campus scales, with capacity for a mix of gas, renewables, and grid-supplied power over time.
Grid interconnection
A connection to the public grid is maintained for backup reliability. The interconnection allows the campus to remain online in the event of a planned outage of on-site generation, and provides a path for any surplus on-site generation to be made available to the broader system over time.
