Major solar site in Cameron County should begin operating next year
HARLINGEN — South Korean firm Hanwha Energy Corp. is building a 242-megawatt solar power plant in southwestern Cameron County which should start commercial production next year. Located south of La Feria, Hanwha purchased the Rayos Del Sol site from Tradewind Energy for $9 million, press reports say. The facility will be the first commercial solar-generating site in the county. It is located in the southwest corner of the county, north of U.S. 281 and just east of Cobarrubias Road. To the north, it extends all the way to FM 3067. myrgv.com/local-news/business/2021/04/29/major-solar-site-in-county-should-begin-operating-next-year/

Resort coming to SPI? This would be on the bay side and just north of the proposed entrance of the new causeway and outside SPI's city limits. Who would need 618 acres for a resort? Six flags possibly with a space themed resort? Disneyland in California is roughly 500 acres. F**k me if Cameron County lands something like that.... and I believe Cameron County is still working on a marina for cruise ships. cameroncountytx.new.swagit.com/videos/294815

Could just be hotels and cabins and condos. Which is still great though! I just think it's too close to the water for hurricanes/storms to setup a theme park there.

Hurricanes don't bother Disneyland nor Disneyworld or the one in Japan and they are real close to water. Florida gets hit with hurricanes more often than S. Tex.

I can see why MFE is so in a hurry to capitalize n capture all this flights out of the valley. But in reality greater things are waiting to happen in the future for BRO/SPI/HRL and Starbase .. wait n see cuz its coming...
