THE FUTURE OF ENERGY IS HERE IN TEXAS.

 

Texas leads the nation in wind and solar energy, ranking 1st for wind energy production and 4th for solar. Over 17% of the state’s electricity is produced using wind energy!

 

We’re an organization representing: members of the Texas wind and solar energy industry, project developers and investors, land owners, manufacturers and suppliers, counties and school districts, and the more than 25,000 employees working in Texas in the industry.

The Texas Power Alliance and the Advanced Power Alliance represent its members in Texas’ policy forums, seeking to encourage and support the production of electricity through the use of wind and solar generators.

 

Through our advocacy programs, we work to expand transmission capacity, to increase the use of renewable generation and energy storage within the region, and to facilitate export of this cleaner, cheaper power to customers around the country. We are leading efforts to defend tax and siting policies that treat renewables development equitably, and we are standing in opposition to those anti-renewable energy forces working to impede the growth of clean power within the state.

 

Our region is rich in wind and solar energy, along with vast quantities of natural gas.  We have a recent and rich history of robust energy development and we are positioned well to lead in energy production long into the future.

 

As part of an “all of the above” solution, wind and solar power are securing our energy independence. The energy future is here now – and our potential is as limitless as the skies above.
