Major Energy Infrastructure on the South Plains

Professional thermal inspection capabilities for the utility-scale wind and solar installations transforming West Texas energy infrastructure. Based locally with equipment and expertise meeting IEC 62446-3 and NFPA 70B standards.

Hornet Solar

Tulia, TX • 600 MW • 1.36M Modules

One of the largest single-phase solar projects in the United States. Vesper Energy facility featuring 1.36 million solar modules on 3,800 acres—enough power for approximately 160,000 homes.

✓25 miles from our base

Hale Wind Project

Petersburg, TX • 478 MW • 239 Turbines

Xcel Energy wind farm featuring 239 Vestas V136 turbines across 50,000 acres—enough power for approximately 168,000 homes annually. One of the largest wind installations in the region.

✓15 minutes from Plainview

Frye Solar

Kress, TX • 637 MW • ~1M Modules

Repsol facility (O&M by RES Group) with 637 MW installed capacity (570 MW operational) on 4,000 acres with nearly 1 million panels. Commissioned April 2024 with professional operations and maintenance.

Our Capabilities for Utility-Scale Infrastructure

West Texas hosts some of the nation's largest wind and solar installations. Based in Hale County with professional-grade equipment, we're prepared to serve utility-scale renewable energy projects across the region with thermal inspection services meeting industry standards.

Why Local Capabilities Matter for Energy Infrastructure

Immediate Response Capability

Same-day or next-day mobilization when weather windows open or equipment issues arise. No waiting for regional crews from DFW, Houston, or out of state.

Local Response Advantage

Our position in Hale County provides rapid mobilization for facilities across the South Plains with the responsiveness that regional or out-of-state contractors cannot match.

Local Weather Knowledge

Three generations on the South Plains means understanding exactly when conditions optimize for thermal surveys—irradiance, wind, temperature, humidity patterns.

Standards Compliance

640×512 radiometric thermal with 2cm RTK GPS meets IEC 62446-3 solar requirements and NFPA 70B electrical standards. Equipment specifications exceed compliance minimums.

Regional Energy Infrastructure Growth

The Texas Panhandle continues rapid renewable energy expansion. ERCOT's pipeline includes 647 planned solar projects (2026-2028), many in the South Plains region. This infrastructure growth creates ongoing thermal inspection demand for:

▸

Solar PV Installations

IEC 62446-3 thermal inspections detect hot cells consistent with bypass diode failures and cell cracks before warranty periods expire

▸

Wind Turbine Facilities

Blade thermal surveys, gearbox monitoring, and nacelle inspections prevent costly downtime during peak generation periods

▸

Electrical Substations

NFPA 70B electrical thermography for transformers, bus bars, switchgear, and transmission connections

Professional Thermal Inspection Services

Equipped with 640×512 radiometric thermal imaging and RTK positioning, we're prepared to provide thermal inspections meeting IEC 62446-3 and NFPA 70B standards for utility-scale renewable energy infrastructure across West Texas.
