Summary
Texas has long been recognized for its abundant energy resources, and today, the state’s unique energy infrastructure is evolving into one of its greatest competitive advantages. In this age of manufacturers expanding operations, AI accelerating electricity demand, and data center construction ever-growing, having access to reliable, flexible, and resilient power is essential. With its dynamic electricity market and low electricity prices, energy is now a strategic differentiator for the state.
Rather than relying exclusively on the grid, many Texas manufacturers are investing in distributed energy resources that improve reliability while reducing operational risk. Natural gas peaking units, combined heat and power (CHP) systems, and solar generation paired with battery storage and microgrids all allow facilities to maintain operations during grid disturbances while improving long-term energy cost management.
