Winter Readiness
During winter months, market pricing for electricity has the potential to escalate across Texas.
We have ensured that we have adequate coverage in our power portfolio to insulate the utility from high market prices.
Conservation will be important this winter, especially on days with extremely cold temperatures.
What is ERCOT, where does GEUS fit in?
The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) is the electric power grid operator for 85% of the state of Texas.
GEUS does own generation locally but we are also members of ERCOT.
Having local generation and a diverse power portfolio protects GEUS from high market prices.
Being a member of ERCOT allows GEUS to buy and sell electricity to ensure the lowest cost possible for our customers.
GEUS is committed to assisting the rest of the state in the case of an emergency.
Why is this important for me to know?
As a Community-Owned Public Power Utility, it is always our goal to keep the community informed, engaged and involved.
As always, GEUS is preparing throughout the utility to be ready to serve.
