MARSHALL — 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.
According to our news partner KETK, 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.
“It supports our entities that must make new investments for growth, including the county, the emergency service districts, and our school district. The City of Marshall is taking a proactive stand for our citizens’ futures,” Marshall Mayor Amy Ware said. “From city capital improvement investments in utilities and roadways, along with new investments in skilled training programs with our education partners, we are positioning and preparing Marshall for renewal—to be a center for new development. A place of choice.”
The battery storage units will store and release electricity to support the Texas-Southwest Power Pool grid.
