Relating to a study of the four coincident peak program by the Public Utility Commission of Texas and the independent organization certified to manage the ERCOT power region.

SB 2074 requires the Texas Public Utility Commission (PUC) and the independent organization managing the ERCOT power grid to study the current "four coincident peak program" used to calculate electricity demand charges for retail customers. The study must analyze how this method affects cost shifting among customers, examine solutions for avoiding charges, assess impacts on peak demand, and compare it to other potential charging methods. This procedural bill does not change existing rules but mandates a report to the legislature by December 1, 2026, to evaluate the program's fairness and effectiveness. It directly involves the PUC, the ERCOT operator, and indirectly affects electricity customers subject to demand charges.
