University Lands FY20 Annual Report

RENEWABLE ENERGY UL’s commitment to renewable energy development sets the foundation for our strategy of being one of the largest renewable lessors in the state. With the continuing maturity of wind and solar and UL’s desire to expand this business line, we began exploring opportunities for more renewable energy development on PUF Lands. In 2020, UL expanded its renewable energy portfolio with 3 new solar projects that began development. At the close of FY2020, UL had 13 active renewable energy leases on 79,000 acres with a combined capacity of 1,512 MWdc (megawatt direct current). This position makes us one of the largest single lessors of renewable energy in the state of Texas.
