From the meeting
The commission will consider Southwestern Electric Power Company's application to amend its certificate of convenience and necessity to purchase a 200 MW battery energy storage system in Rusk County. The item is on the October 1, 2026 agenda as a preliminary order, so the decision is still pending. The main sales signal is a large grid-storage purchase tied to utility expansion and interconnection work.
