US: 86% of Texas’ future capacity will comprise solar or wind, zero coal

The Electric Reliability Council of Texas’s pipeline of projects has ballooned to almost 80 GW. 12 GW of this is gas, while the rest is wind and solar power plants, as well as 522 MW of energy storage.

Zero nuclear and zero coal plants in the pipeline.
