Texas lawmakers are discussing the need for additional gas generation to support the state's power grid. The debate comes as the grid faces challenges in maintaining stability due to growing demand. Rapid growth in data centers is contributing to the increased demand, according to Texas ERCOT officials.

They also note that more dispatchable energy resources are needed to ensure the grid's stability. Further details on the discussion and the grid's management are available from Texas ERCOT officials and local news sources, including KXAN.
