How Texas makes its electricity:
(full-year 2022)      Natural Gas (49%)     Wind (21.6%)     Coal (16.2%)     Nuclear (7.9%)     Solar (4.8%)     Biomass (0.3%)     Hydroelectric (0.2%)     Other (0.1%)

This article is about the many places in Texas that make electricity. These places are called power stations.

In 2021, Texas had enough power plants to make 139,751 megawatts (MW) of electricity during summer. In 2022, the state produced a huge 524,504 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of electricity.

Most of this electricity came from natural gas (49%). Other important sources were wind power (21.6%), coal (16.2%), and nuclear power (7.9%). Smaller amounts came from solar power (4.8%), biomass (0.3%), and hydroelectric power (0.2%). Even small solar panels on homes added 3,125 GWh to the grid in 2022!

Texas uses and makes more electricity than any other U.S. state. It makes almost twice as much electricity as Florida, the next biggest producer. Texas is always adding new ways to make power as more people move there and need electricity.

For example, wind power capacity grew to 35,000 MW by the end of 2021. Solar power also grew a lot, reaching 10,300 MW. Wind power started making more electricity than nuclear power in 2014. By 2019, it was almost making more than coal. Over the last 20 years, power from fossil fuels (like natural gas and coal) and nuclear energy has stayed about the same. However, natural gas has slowly taken the place of coal.

Sometimes, when oil is taken out of the ground in Texas, natural gas is also released. In 2019, about 250 billion cubic feet of this natural gas was burned off, especially in the Permian basin near Midland. This wasted gas could have heated and cooked for all homes in Texas. It also could have made almost as much electricity as the state's nuclear power plants (about 40,000 GWh).


How Texas Makes Electricity

Texas uses many different ways to generate electricity. These methods can be grouped into a few main types: nuclear, fossil fuels (like coal and natural gas), and renewable sources (like wind, solar, biomass, and hydroelectric).

Nuclear Power Plants

Nuclear power plants create electricity by splitting tiny particles called atoms. This process makes a lot of heat, which boils water to create steam. The steam then spins large turbines to make electricity. Nuclear power plants do not release greenhouse gases into the air.

Texas has two main nuclear power plants:

Name Location Power (MW)
South Texas Project Electric Generating Station Matagorda County 2,500
Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant Somervell County 2,208

Fossil Fuel Power Plants

Fossil fuel power plants burn fuels like coal or natural gas to create heat. This heat boils water, making steam that spins turbines to generate electricity.

Coal Power Plants

Coal power plants burn coal, a type of rock, to make electricity. While they produce a lot of power, they also release gases that can affect the environment. Some coal plants in Texas are planning to close or switch to natural gas in the future.

Natural Gas Power Plants

Natural gas power plants burn natural gas, a clean-burning fossil fuel, to generate electricity. Many of these plants use a "combined cycle" method, which means they capture waste heat to make even more electricity, making them more efficient.
