The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) has been unsuccessful in finding industry interest for providing alternatives to relocating a fleet of portable generators to San Antonio. Market participants were given a deadline to submit questions for offering alternative power sources, but none were filed, indicating a lack of interest in the proposal. ERCOT initiated the bid process to explore cost-effective solutions, especially after an earlier request for proposals failed to attract any bids.

ERCOT’s board is faced with the task of approving a plan that will be funded by utility customers across the state to ensure grid reliability. The proposed plan involves potentially utilizing CenterPoint Energy’s portable generators in San Antonio to address transmission issues until new infrastructure is in place. Despite challenges with the deployment of the generators, ERCOT sees them as a temporary solution to manage grid congestion and reduce electricity bills for customers from this spring onward.
