Sorry, looks like there are no officials for that address!
Here are the facts:
- Big renewable energy companies in Texas will receive $36 BILLION in subsidies by 2029.

- Huge subsidies for renewable generators artificially force prices down, making it impossible for reliable power generators to compete.
