A4CRE Testimony Before the Texas House State Affairs Committee

BYOP is a simple idea:

Don’t force all new demand onto one system—allow new power systems to be built alongside it. Not instead of the grid—alongside it.

Today, we are pushing an unprecedented wave of demand through a single, centralized system. That approach is creating exactly the problems you’ve identified:

• Congestion in interconnection queues

• Unpredictable and escalating costs

• Pressure for massive transmission buildout and

• Growing community backlash

BYOP takes a different approach. It allows new, large customers to:

• Build their own generation

• Finance their own infrastructure

• Operate independently of the grid

And the result is powerful: Take new demand off the grid without taking growth off the table.
