HARRISON COUNTY, Texas (KTAL/KMSS) — Peregrine Energy Solutions is building a battery energy storage facility in East Texas.
The $400 million facility will be built on 42 acres near the intersection of 3251 and Fyffe Cutoff near Marshall.
Peregrine will also provide specialized fire safety training for local first responders.
Marshall Economic Development is touting the project as one of the largest private investments in county history.
Construction is expected to begin in 2027, and operations are slated to begin in 2028.
Although the project is outside Marshall’s city limits, Peregrine’s property tax contributions will support Marshall ISD.
The battery storage units will store and release electricity to support the Texas-Southwest Power Pool grid.
