Parliament is proud to be a member of the Waller Texas community. We recognize our privilege to be a part of this community and are dedicated to continue to earn the trust of our neighbors. Our project brings economic investment, job creation, and clean, renewable energy. We pledge to continue to be a good neighbor and member of this great Texas community here in Waller.
Once operational, Parliament Solar will generate low-cost electricity to power the equivalent of 140,000 homes in the Houston metro area. The project will displace 800,000 metric tons of CO2 annually compared to emissions of conventional power plants. Waller County and Waller Independent School District will benefit from substantial tax revenues and payments from the project. Parliament Energy expects to utilize a workforce of 600+ jobs during the two-year construction period and provide five full-time jobs during operation, with the aim of hiring locally. Parliament will seek to pursue conservation and environmental impact projects on site in coordination with the local community.
Parliament Solar is working with Texan by Nature, of which it is a member of, is working to build the best plan to create a pollinator habitat on site once the project is completed. We will work with local contractors for seeds, planting and maintaining the habitat so that our pollinators may thrive.
Parliament Solar provided significant financial support for the garden which has been widely acclaimed for the originality of its design, collection and education and conservation programs. The garden located in Hempstead, TX features an extraordinary variety of plants that are well suited for the climate of the Texas gulf coast.
