# DALLAS – Texas Renewable Grid announced today that the U.S. Department of Energy has awarded the company an $8.2 million grant to deploy advanced battery storage systems designed to stabilize the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) grid during peak demand periods. The funding will support the installation of Texas Renewable Grid's proprietary lithium-iron-phosphate battery systems across multiple substations in the ERCOT service territory. The technology enables rapid energy discharge during high-demand events, reducing strain on aging transmission infrastructure and minimizing the risk of rolling blackouts. "This grant validates our mission to strengthen Texas's energy infrastructure while accelerating the adoption of renewable sources," said Maria Chen, Chief Executive Officer of Texas Renewable Grid. "Our battery systems can respond to grid demands in milliseconds, providing the stability necessary as Texas continues its transition toward a cleaner energy future." The project will deploy 150 megawatts of battery storage capacity with a four-hour duration rating, equivalent to powering approximately 225,000 homes during peak evening hours. Installation is scheduled to commence in Q3 2025, with full operational capacity expected by mid-2027. Texas Renewable Grid's solution addresses critical challenges identified in recent ERCOT assessments, which highlighted the need for additional storage resources to maintain grid reliability amid growing demand and extreme weather events. **About Texas Renewable Grid** Texas Renewable Grid is a Dallas-based energy technology company specializing in grid-scale battery storage solutions and renewable energy integration.
