Texas power grid

The Southern Spirit Transmission project would allow limited energy to flow between the Texas grid and neighboring grids.

A Texas lawmaker wants to delay when the school year starts to help lessen strain on the state's power grid. Experts say it wouldn't make a difference.

The announcement came soon after a new prediction by the state’s main grid operator that power demands will nearly double by 2030.

The massive share of renewable energy on the grid is a positive sign for efforts to combat climate change. It will become ever-more common as solar, wind and battery-storage facilities are added.

The former Austin City Council member's Connect the Grid Act would mandate that ERCOT create new interconnections with neighboring power grids.

The grid operator said it's expecting electricity supply to be tight and asked Texans to conserve energy between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m.

A panel of judges has said that big power companies cannot be held liable for failure to provide electricity during the 2021 blackout. The reason is Texas’ deregulated energy market.

The independent market monitor of the Texas power grid has resigned after saying that state grid operators had "artificially" inflated energy prices.

Supporters say the creation of the energy fund will bolster the Texas grid. Opponents say it's an unnecessary giveaway to power companies and the gas industry.

The Texas power grid operator reduced energy flowing along a key transmission line on Wednesday, exacerbating a power grid emergency.
