Texas SB6 regulates planning, interconnection, and operation of large electrical loads and power generation by water utilities.

Texas SB6 mandates the Public Utility Commission to establish standards for large load customers at transmission voltage in the ERCOT power region. These standards aim to support business development while minimizing stranded infrastructure costs. The commission must set a demand threshold for large loads, establish a flat study fee for initial transmission screening studies, and require large load customers to disclose information about their on-site backup generating facilities.
