The changes taking place on the Texas power grid are impressive. Â Solar remains just under 4% of the Texas generation stack, but its rapid growth is providing another leg to the stool of Texas renewable dominance
Texas monthly renewable generation is nearly 40% higher than California's, the 2nd largest state and 200% higher than the 4th largest U.S. state for renewable generation, Oregon.
To put things in context, there are only 8 U.S. states that produce more total power than what Texas generates in renewable power
Whether oil & gas production or renewable generation, Texas is a true giant in energizing the U.S. and the world.
