Texas is increasingly moving away from power generated by natural gas, the backbone of the state’s electricity system and which supplies about half of the state’s generating capacity.
Solar power is emerging as the state’s fastest growing electricity source, according to the state grid manager, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas. Solar developers are expected to install about 68 gigawatts of solar power capacity, representing 61 percent of the power projects expected to come on the grid between now and 2023. One gigawatt provides enough power for about 700,000 homes.
