HOUSTON, Texas– Many residents and businesses are turning to microgrids as a reliable solution for stable electricity during extreme weather, following the February 2021 winter storm that left millions of Texans without power.

Microgrids, which can operate independently from the main power grid, are becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to the state’s vulnerable electrical grid.

The storm, known as Winter Storm Uri, exposed vulnerabilities in the state’s electrical grid, leaving millions without electricity for days. In response, the demand for microgrid systems has increased, with both individuals and businesses turning to this technology for energy security.

H-E-B, a major grocery chain in Texas, has invested in microgrid technology to ensure its stores remain operational during power outages. This move is part of a broader trend among businesses in the state to adopt microgrids as a means to maintain business continuity during extreme weather.

The Texas Legislature has also taken steps to encourage the adoption of microgrids, approving funding to deploy more systems across the state.

The funding is aimed at enhancing the reliability of the state’s power grid and reducing the impact of future weather-related disruptions. Grants will be available for both individuals and businesses to install microgrid systems.

Recent advancements in technology, particularly in battery storage, have made microgrids more efficient and reliable. The ability to store excess energy generated from renewable sources allows microgrids to provide consistent power even during periods of low generation.
