HB 318 would let Texas utilities buy power from outside the ERCOT grid and connect to other power networks.
Could see lower electric bills if connecting to other grids brings in cheaper power during peak times. May also get more reliable electricity during extreme weather events.
Could benefit from more stable electric bills and fewer outages when Texas can buy power from other states during emergencies. Any savings would help stretch household budgets.
May see modest electric bill savings if grid connections increase competition and lower wholesale power costs. Would benefit from improved grid reliability during extreme weather.
Could see some electric bill savings from increased power market competition, but the impact would be smaller relative to overall household budget. Main benefit would be improved grid reliability.
