From the meeting
At its August 21, 2026 meeting, the board considered an option-to-lease for about 50 acres at the Southern University Agricultural Center for a proposed 300-megawatt battery energy storage facility. The deal was with Land Grant Energy Security Alliance, LLC, and was tied to its Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) interconnection filing before the September 2026 deadline. The opportunity is pre-construction but time-sensitive because the site control package supports the utility-scale project and follow-on development approvals.
