TEXAS POWER GRID 2025-2035
Infrastructure, risk, demand vs. supply, future power supply, best solutions
Texas has huge demand currently and a great deal more to ensue!
We’re approaching a critical point : new gas-fired power plants are years away and mini- nuclear plants could be 6-8 years from actual production. Texas businesses are facing much greater future utility risk than ever before!
One dynamic solution emerges - utilizing our special program - buy power at 2025 reduced rates (consume power from 2026-2034) for long a term as possible (5-10 year contracts). .
At National 1 Energy, we’re bundling and aggregating hundreds of early renewals to negotiate special discounted pricing.

Getting Deeper In The Weeds
(read more)
I want to explain the serious challenges Texas is facing—and how they could impact your account if no action is taken—then help you strategically protect your business’s P&L and assets.
Electricity demand in Texas is expected to double within 12–24 months, but the grid is already near capacity. Texas still offers some of the lowest rates, attracting major power users—bitcoin miners, AI centers, data hubs, and companies like Tesla and Chevron—all straining the grid. When demand outpaces supply, ERCOT may be forced to import electricity at $5–$6 per kWh. Remember Winter Storm Yuri? That was the emergency backup.
60% of Texas power comes from renewables, but output drops in heat, calm, or clouds—just when demand peaks. This triggers grid alerts, blackouts, and soaring rates.
No new gas plants are underway, and nuclear options are years out. Mini reactors remain unproven.
AI data centers—using 20x more power—are being told to generate their own electricity. Many will come online in 5–8 years, adding long-term pressure.
The risk isn’t just higher costs—it’s losing access to fixed contracts and defaulting to volatile, high-priced index rates.
Right now, businesses can lock in 2025 rates for 2025–2035 usage—but the window is closing. If demand keeps rising, future contracts may double—or disappear.
Let’s talk now—before this crisis fully unfolds.

THE OUTLOOK FOR ELECTRICITY - NATIONAL COMMENTARY News article published on CNBC 6/21/2025"Why electricity prices are surging for U.S. households"
PUBLISHED SAT, JUN 21 20255:30 AM EDT
Facilities are outstripping the pace at which new electricity generation is being added to the electric grid, Hill said.
"Electricity demand is absolutely growing",says Siemens Energy CEO“Electricity prices are regionally determined, not globally determined like oil prices,” said Joe Seydl, a senior markets economist at J.P. Morgan Private Bank.The EIA expects average retail electricity prices to increase 13% from 2022 through 2025.
Data centers are ‘energy hungry’The QTS data center complex under development in Fayetteville, Georgia, on Oct. 17, 2024.Elijah Nouvelage | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesElectricity demand growth was “minimal” in recent decades due to increases in energy efficiency, according to Jennifer Curran, seni
Data centers are vast warehouses of computer servers and other IT equipment that power cloud computing, artificial intelligence and other tech applications.
Data center electricity use tripled to 176 Terawatt-hours in the decade through 2023, according to the U.S. Energy Department. Use is projected to double or triple by 2028, the agency said.Data centers are expected to consume up to 12% of total U.S. electricity by 2028, up from 4.4% in 2023, the Energy Department said.They’re “energy hungry,” Curran said. Demand growth has been “unexpected” and largely due to support for artificial intelligence, she said.The U.S. economy is set to consume more electricity in 2030 for processing data than for manufacturing all energy-intensive goods combined, including aluminum, steel, cement and chemicals, according to the International Energy Agency.
