A recent Texas law, SB 6, set to take effect in 2025, significantly updates the regulatory framework for large power consumers, particularly those using Behind-the-Meter or Front-of-Meter configurations, by increasing transparency, predictability, and financial accountability through stricter approval processes and reduced authority for the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT). The law requires detailed system studies, financial viability assessments, and disclosures about similar projects and backup generation capabilities, while also imposing new requirements on developers to ensure compliance with Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) rules and statutory thresholds.
