Agreed! Deploying sheep at solar facilities lowers O&M $, improves the land & grows TX ag businesses. Proud of our members’ work on grazing & other innovative ways to ensure multi-purpose land use by working directly with private landowners who partner with industry. #txenergy

And we saw new battery storage records the past two days, highlighting the strength of BESS and its relationship with solar. With four-hour duration storage (and longer), the grid will continue to strengthen. But, market/AS signals for longer duration BESS are needed 🔋⚡️

Another Texas solar power record yesterday — 33,452 MW, which broke the previous record set…the day before. Solar powered over 60% of the grid for several hours. ☀️⚡️

The @DallasFed says attracting skilled workers is critical to Texas' economic future. So is keeping electricity prices stable as demand grows. Solar + storage helps deliver both. All-of-the-above energy isn't just good policy, it's a workforce strategy. dallasnews.com/business/econo…

Texas is leading the nation in solar power installation. The state added 11 gigawatts of solar capacity last year, driven by rising demand from data centers and continued population growth across a region of more than 7.5 million residents. ☀️Learn more about the role of solar and storage supporting the grid: ow.ly/OLiE50YvQx8

Congrats, Commissioner Rhode! We look forward to working with you.

Not only did solar generate its most MW in Texas history today (32,334 MW), it also powered nearly 2/3 of the grid for much of the afternoon. Great to see our members powering Texas.

TSSA member @basepowerco is changing the way utilities meet high demand. This partnership with @CoServ is the latest example of how home batteries can work together to strengthen the grid. pv-magazine-usa.com/2026/03/09/bas…

TSSA’s Mark Stover will be hosting a panel discussion on battery storage safety and community engagement at the Wood Mackenzie Solar & Storage Summit in Colorado next month. We hope to see you there.

TSSA welcomes AES and Google to the membership. We look forward to working with you to advance solar power and energy storage in Texas.

Solar power provided 16% of ERCOT’s electricty in Feb 2026 and is at 13% on the year (likely 18-20% by EOY). Feb 2026 compared to Feb 2025 — a 46% increase in output.

Love to see so many of these projects in Texas! Thanks for investing in our communities @RWE_Americas!

The renewable energy industry supports a strong Texas workforce..9% of employees are veterans. Renewable energy is creating jobs, supporting families, and building opportunities across the state for Texans and veterans. #TXENERGY

The US is expected to build 43 GW of new solar this year, up 60% from last year. Texas will carry 40% of this new capacity 💪 eia.gov/todayinenergy/…

More and more solar projects in Texas are utilizing solar grazing. Sheep graze beneath the panels, and farmers keep the land in production while diversifying their income. The land doesn’t stop working, it just works in more than one way.

Texas solar power hit 31 GW for the first time over the weekend, surpassing a record that stood at 5 GW just five years ago. Solar is helping to power Texas in a major way.

Great partnership with TSSA member @basepowerco and @ElPasoElectric. Base’s batteries will provide 10 MW of distributed, dispatchable power that the utility will be able to draw upon when needed to boost reliability. Congrats, @ZachBDell and team. pv-magazine-usa.com/2026/02/19/bas…

Big congrats to TSSA member @OCIEnergy on the Arva 347 MW solar project! This $394 million project in Warton County will boost the grid and local economy. renewablesnow.com/news/oci-energ…

Well said @cnsrvtxns4nrg! Couldn’t agree more.

A new report shows that Sunrun’s first-of-its-kind distributed power plant with PG&E successfully supplied targeted power to neighborhoods with highly-constrained electric grids When power lines and substations are nearing capacity, utilities have to add more distribution infrastructure. This collaboration shows that home batteries can come to the rescue by dispatching critical energy exactly when and where it’s needed. More than 1,000 Sunrun customers’ storage-plus-solar systems exported energy over last summer and fall to alleviate overloaded substations and power lines, with the goal of helping PG&E avoid or defer distribution upgrades while generating net savings for all utility customers. “Working with partners like Sunrun is a win for our customers, our electric grid and California as a whole. This program shows how customers can help improve local grid reliability as we support the state’s growing need for energy,” said Patti Poppe, CEO of PG&E Corporation. Read more: bit.ly/40rkjuK

Texas’ diverse power sources complement each other and help keep the grid strong. We’re proud to be: #1 in utility-scale solar ☀️ #1 in battery storage 🔋 #1 in natural gas 🛢️ #1 in wind 💨
