Your resource for going solar in San Antonio.

 

Local Potential for Solar Power

San Antonio benefits from being on the edge of the most intense solar power concentration in the United States. While San Antonio does not have the intensity of sunshine that El Paso, Las Vegas, Phoenix and Albuquerque have, it has more solar energy than many other cities (many with very active solar programs!).

 

 

Concentrated Solar Power

Large-scale concentrated solar power (CSP) projects appear to be able to provide most of the needs of San Antonio and Texas, assuming suitable transmission and storage capacity. Total existing capacity to generate electricity in Texas is about 80,000 megawatts, but Texas has the potential for nearly 150,000 megawatts of CSP.
