In 2005 the Texas Legislature enacted a law requiring Texas to increase the use of renewable energy, primarily wind generation, located in West Texas. The legislation required the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) to designate Competitive Renewable Energy Zones (CREZ) throughout the state and develop a plan to construct necessary transmission infrastructure and capacity to deliver new renewable energy to electric customers in Texas.
In order to stimulate competition and economic growth, the PUCT awarded some CREZ transmission construction projects to new companies, one of which was WETT. WETT received its license to construct transmission in late 2010 and has since built 12 substations and over 400 miles of transmission, connecting over 3500 MW of both wind and solar energy.
WETT has multiple projects in process, continuing to connect generation and improve the transmission network as the demand for reliable energy is ever-increasing given the growth of the population, as well as the development of electric vehicles, AI and crypto currency.
We’re a rapidly growing team of talented people who enjoy working together to build a better infrastructure for the future of Texas.
