Texas Senate Bill 6 Navigating New Regulations for Battery Storage and Microgrid Projects
A new Texas Senate Bill, SB 6, has been introduced, aimed at regulating large loads connected to the state grid through battery storage and microgrid projects. The legislation seeks to address concerns about grid stability and fairness by restricting the authority of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) to curtail large loads, while increasing developer responsibilities and requiring greater transparency in project applications, interconnection studies, and infrastructure upgrades.
