Texas Solar Developers Warn of Legislative Threats to Renewable Energy Growth and Grid Stability Ahead of 2025.

A panel of leading utility-scale solar developers has warned about the 2025 Texas Legislature, which is expected to block the development of new solar and wind capacity in the US between this year and 2035. The panel highlighted several proposals launched in 2023 to undermine the further development of renewables in Texas, including Senate Bill 624, which would have the effect of putting all operating projects on notice without a permit from the Public Utilities Commission (PUC). The panel also highlighted concerns about the potential instability of the grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) in Texas. Leading utilities-scale developers were represented by Barb Jacobs of Lightsource bp and Susan Williams Sloan of Orsted. Jacobs warned that the political situation in Texas had not improved since 2023 and that it may have worsened.
