Texas Grid Accountability

For The Media

Texas landowners and ratepayers are demanding proof, transparency, alternatives, and property-rights protections before proposed or additional permanent 765kV corridors are approved.

Official statement draft

Texas does not have to choose between reliable power and property rights.

Before utilities receive approval for permanent easements and ratepayer-funded infrastructure, they should prove the need, show the math, compare lower-impact alternatives, and justify route impacts in public.

“The public deserves the record, not the sales pitch.”
