Texas finalizes $1.8B to build solar, battery, and gas-powered microgrids

Texas finalizes $1.8B to build solar, battery, and gas-powered microgrids

This story was originally published by Canary Media. The Texas Legislature ended its biennial session without passing a slew of bills that could have killed the state’s booming solar and battery sector, and by extension, the ability to keep the Texas grid running amid extreme weather and surging demand for electricity. It did pass a law that could strengthen the state’s electricity
