Rising energy costs are taking an unaffordable toll on too many Texans. By doubling down on our state’s renewable resources, Texas can contain electricity prices AND increase reliability. #txlege https://t.co/2ptzwFwjJG

[Texas Energy News @TxEnergyBiz]

As Texans struggle with energy costs, some utilities want to raise rates even higher. With more distributed solar and battery systems, Texas can improve reliability AND lower power bills. #txlege https://t.co/s2LvJZD0RT

Energy is cheaper in Texas, thanks in part to the state's renewables boom. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. #txlege #txenergy https://t.co/vsk8PfrLWH

[Texas Energy News @TxEnergyBiz]

This summer was drama-free on the Texas grid, and the state’s nation-leading solar, wind, and battery resources are a big reason why. #txlege #txenergy https://t.co/rvToc4nMkB

[Texas Energy News @TxEnergyBiz]

In Texas, wholesale energy prices were lower in 2024 than 2020 and have been below the national average for two years. Thank our state’s nation-leading solar, wind & battery resources. #txlege #txenergy https://t.co/vsk8PfsjMf

“We’re in an energy crunch. We should be doubling down on everything we can build right now. Making things more expensive is antithetical to that.” Anti-energy policies are holding Texas back. #txlege https://t.co/RXuhQHl0r2

[Texas Energy News @TxEnergyBiz]

Our competitive energy market can help Texas deliver the fast, reliable, affordable power that AI and other modern industries need. But Washington’s anti-energy policies threaten to hobble our grid and economy. #txlege https://t.co/RXuhQHl0r2

[Texas Energy News @TxEnergyBiz]

Energy is getting more expensive, and anti-energy attacks on renewables are making it worse. #txlege https://t.co/PPMUUSnq7d

[Texas Energy News @TxEnergyBiz]

As Texas sets new records for energy demand, the state’s abundant solar, wind, and battery storage resources are keeping lights on, air conditioners running, and bills low. #txlege https://t.co/sU4fjvML2R

[Texas Energy News @TxEnergyBiz]

Anti-energy attacks on Texas’ abundant, nation-leading  renewables will raise businesses’ power bills by 54%, increase residential bills by 20%, and clearcut 100,000 jobs. https://t.co/v5bXssWoMX

[Texas Energy News @TxEnergyBiz]

This reckless refusal to follow the law will punish Texans, denying access to technologies that protect families and communities from blackouts and unaffordable power bills. #txlege https://t.co/8JTiX2RYeb

[Texas Energy News @TxEnergyBiz]

All Texans deserve access to energy and technologies that lower bills and protect families from blackouts. This anti-energy activism hurts Texans and the Texas economy. #txlege https://t.co/8JTiX2RqoD
