To find the answers, Texas 2036 built a digital dashboard to explore four key energy scenarios: status quo, advanced fossil, energy transition and energy expansion.
Texas is a future energy leader. But for how long?
Texas can continue to be a future energy leader, but the amount of energy Texas produces will vary depending on the path it takes.
How would a Texas energy expansion meet rising energy demand?
If Texas embraces an “all-of-the-above” energy expansion path, where the costs and technologies associated with fossil fuel and renewable production improve over time, it could increase energy production by 59% by 2050.
Oil and gas is Texas energy. What if a continued expansion doesn’t happen?
The “business as usual” approach is not enough to sustain the state’s energy future. An “all-of-the-above” approach expanding all sources of energy is needed to secure the state’s future prosperity.
