Charger Solar O&M Facility

The Charger Solar O&M Facility in Tivoli, Texas, is a completed new construction project consisting of a 1,410 sq ft prefabricated modular building on concrete footings. The site, located at 144 HWY 239 E, includes a slab-on-grade foundation for connex buildings and a storage shed housing a water tank that supplies the main structure. This facility was registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) under the accessibility (TABS) program, with all records indicating the build is finished.

Construction began in December 2025, and the project passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in April 2026. This confirmed status means the physical work is complete and the structure meets state accessibility standards. The estimated cost for this build was $2,214,369, resulting in a calculated cost of $1,570 per square foot. This figure is notably above the county median for similar new construction filings in Refugio County.

Refugio County data from 25 comparable TDLR-registered new construction projects shows a median estimated cost of $631,107 and a median size of 2,431 sq ft.

The scheduled build window for this project was 105 days, which is shorter than the county median of 210 days. These metrics reflect a rapid, high-cost build for a specialized solar operations and maintenance site.
