About Powering Texans

The voice of Texas power generation.

Powering Texans represents major Texas electricity generators who advocate for free-market policies that drive competition, investment, dispatchable generation, and a stronger grid.

Mission

A free, competitive Texas energy market.

Powering Texans advocates for free-market policies that promote innovation, competition, and investment in the Texas energy sector.

By keeping the energy market free from excessive government control, Powering Texans works to foster investment, encourage competition, and deliver a stronger grid for Texans, businesses, and families.

Free-Market Energy Policy

Competition — not central planning — has driven the investment, technology, and reliability gains Texas has achieved.

Investment Signals

Stable rules and clear market signals are how Texas attracts the capital it needs to build the next generation of power.

Dispatchable Generation

On-demand resources are the backbone of a grid that has to deliver every hour, in every weather.

Reliability for Every Texan

From summer peaks to winter storms, the test of any policy is whether the lights stay on.
