There is probably nothing more important to the survival or the growing Texas real estate market than electricity. The lack of enough availability, there will be no new construction and people will not want to
buy homes or establish businesses in the area.
With this, by a vote of 2-1, the Texas Public Utility Commission granted preliminary approval to a $4.9 billion dollar plan to build new transmission lines to carry wind-generated electricity from West Texas to urban areas like Dallas and Houston.
Texas is already the national leader in wind power and generates close to 5,000 megawatts a day using wind. But, a lack of transmission lines has kept a lot of that power from being put to use.
