“We continue to see accelerated growth opportunities across Greater Houston, where the region’s speed-to-market advantage is creating a compelling pipeline of additional customer-driven investment opportunities. This growth also supports affordability as we expect it will drive approximately $5 billion in savings for Texas residential and commercial customers over the next decade. Beyond today’s $4 billion capital plan increase to expand system capacity to accommodate growth, we see at least another $10 billion of additional opportunities to enable system reliability, enhance safety and drive economic development across our service territories.”
