Sources of Clute Electricity

Electricity in Clute comes from a mixed bag of sources.  About half of the power generated in Texas comes from natural gas.  Natural gas has a number of benefits that make it the ideal source of power in Texas.

More natural gas is produced in Texas than anywhere else in the country.  This abundance has helped drive down the price of natural gas over the past decade.

It’s easy to boost output from power plants that burn natural gas to generate electricity.  This is critical to maintaining the balance of available supply and demand on the state’s electrical grid at any given time.   An imbalance of supply and demand could destabilize the grid and lead to problems including power outages.

Wind energy has a lot of benefits, but it is not an on demand source of electricity.  Wind turbines can only generate electricity when the wind blows.  However, wind is a great source of clean renewable energy.  Texas has invested heavily in infrastructure to support its large and growing wind industry.
