Texas Natural Gas Power Generation Expansion
Sector: Natural Gas • Location: Texas, United States
Source: San Antonio Report
A surge of natural gas power plants is appearing in the Texas grid's interconnection queue, driven largely by the influx of data centers requiring 24/7 power. The volume of gas projects in the queue has increased by over 400% from 12,500 MW in March 2023 to nearly 64,000 MW as of April 2026. This growth is supported by the Texas Energy Fund, which provides low-interest loans to dispatchable power

Description
Description | A surge of natural gas power plants is appearing in the Texas grid's interconnection queue, driven largely by the influx of data centers requiring 24/7 power. The volume of gas projects in the queue has increased by over 400% from 12,500 MW in March 2023 to nearly 64,000 MW as of April 2026. This growth is supported by the Texas Energy Fund, which provides low-interest loans to dispatchable power projects like gas-fired plants. ERCOT anticipates a significant need for more gas generation to maintain grid reliability due to the increasing power demand from data centers. |
