In partnership with Ashtrom Renewable Energy, Mortenson is providing complete EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) contracting services for the 399-megawatt Tierra Bonita solar project in Girvin, Texas. The collaboration with Ashtrom Renewable Energy has been pivotal, fostering a highly solution-based approach from inception to execution. This project has laid the groundwork for a successful partnership and has set the foundation for future endeavors to come.

Tierra Bonita spans approximately 1,700 acres and utilizes over 600,000 Trina modules, 92 SunGrow inverters, and over 6,500 NEXTracker single-axis trackers. The Tierra Bonita project stands out for its advanced technology, including Mortenson’s largest installation of SunGrow inverters to date, expanding our diverse portfolio of technology-agnostic offerings.

The project’s location and the team’s efforts have been crucial in maintaining high morale – showing a strong commitment to community engagement by participating in philanthropic activities such as helping build, paint, and set up an entire theatre production for the Fort Stockton Community Theatre. Tierra Bonita is a testament to what can be achieved through strong partnerships, project innovation and a strong commitment to Building for the Greater Good.

Construction for the Tierra Bonita solar project began in Q1 2023 and is expected to be completed by Q4 2024.
