About Us

Our Purpose

Our Mission

Founded in 2022 in the wake of Winter Storm Uri, PowerHouse Texas emerged with a bold mission: to educate and cultivate policy leaders who will promote energy innovation, security, and sustainability. We go beyond partisanship so policymakers, legislative staff, industry experts, innovators and public citizens can share solutions that will secure Texas’ position as a leader in energy and advance new technologies.

Texas stands at a pivotal crossroad.

As both the nation’s largest emitter of greenhouse gases and its top producer of clean energy, the state has a unique opportunity to lead the way in decarbonization.

To capitalize on this leadership opportunity, it is critical to ensure sound policies guide our path.

Together with our sister organization, the Texas Energy & Climate Caucus, we play a vital role in combating misinformation, bridging the science-policy education gap, allowing for better policies, and inspiring more diverse champions to join the effort.

With energy demand rising and environmental concerns growing, the need for smart, forward-thinking policy has never been more urgent. PowerHouse Texas is here to support lawmakers, staffers, and stakeholders as they navigate these challenges and build a more resilient, sustainable future. At the same time, we are cultivating a strong pipeline of future leaders ready to carry this work forward.

Texas has always shaped national energy trends. By taking bold, informed action today, we can ensure those trends move toward sustainability, resilience, and prosperity.

We invite you to join us in this effort—your partnership and support are key towards ensuring a sustainable, resilient and robust energy future.
