Intersect has donated $50,000 to the historic Stamford Carnegie Library, a cornerstone of the Stamford, TX community. Originally built in 1910, this historic library is one of just five original Carnegie libraries still in operation in Texas. The funds will help build a new children’s education section, creating space for young learners to read, learn, and grow. With our Quantum project nearby, we’re proud to support this vital community resource to expand its reach and continue its legacy of learning.

We are proud to announce a $150,000 contribution to the Hereford Sports and Wellness Center in Hereford, Texas! This funding supports enhancements to the John Bunch Sports Complex, including much-needed shade structures, fencing, improved parking, and other amenities for athletes, families, and the entire community to enjoy. As part of this partnership, our team joined the Hereford Sports and Wellness staff and local leaders for a volunteer day at the complex. Volunteers spent the morning cleaning bleachers, pulling weeds, and clearing the fields. We're excited to see the positive impact this complex will have for years to come. Take a look at some highlights from our volunteer day below. 👇

Our team had an amazing time working alongside the incredible students, parents, and staff at The Well STEAM and Literacy Center, in Pampa Texas. We built, painted, and planted to enhance a community space that has become a vibrant hub. As part of this initiative, we also donated $20,000 to support The Well’s summer camps. This funding helps make hands-on experiences in science, art, and musical theater more accessible by reducing program costs for local families by up to 50 percent. We’re proud to support organizations like The Well that create meaningful opportunities for the next generation.

With summer temperatures climbing, staying cool is top of mind. For the third year running, we teamed up with Texas’ own Scurry County Resource Center for their Stay Cool, Scurry County event. Just down the road from our Lumina Facility, this year’s event helped 61 local families beat the heat with brand-new air conditioning units—right on time for the summer season. Big thanks to our Intersect volunteers—Eduardo Campos, Cecil Blair, and Logan Nonnez— and to the incredible team at the Resource Center for making it all happen.

We're thrilled to share that the California Energy Commission has unanimously approved the permit for our Darden Project. This is the first project approved under California's new "opt-in" permit streamlining program. Located in western Fresno County, the project will include 1,150 MW of solar PV and 4,600 MWh of battery storage, making it the nation's largest solar + battery project. This project will be a significant economic driver, generating over 1,200 jobs during construction, more than $2 million in direct community investments over the first 10 years and more than $5 million over the life of the project through our Community Benefits Plan, and hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenues for local government. Intersect is committed to working closely with local stakeholders to ensure the Darden Project delivers lasting benefits and elevates communities closest to the site.
