in Local Energy
After years of severe storm damage and grid instability, Texas utilities shifted focus from rebuilding outdated infrastructure to supporting locally distributed energy systems. These programs help stabilize the grid and make clean, reliable power more accessible to homeowners.
Supported by Utilities
Local utility partners in Texas review and approve qualified self-generation systems submitted through trusted third-party administrators. Eligible homeowners can receive bill credits for contributing to community-based energy solutions.
