Texas PUC large-load interconnection rule under SB 6 (Project 58481, 16 TAC 25.194), all Texas utilities

Large-load tariff for data centers: what is on file, the terms the filings state, and where each fact comes from. Terms a filing does not state are marked, never guessed.

StatusApproved  Last reviewed 2026-11-12
Applies atNew or expanded load of 75 MW or more at one site
What the filing saysAPPROVED AND FINAL. The rule proposed here was adopted as new 16 TAC 25.194 (Project No. 58481, signed by the Commission September 18, 2026); the final, Commission-adopted terms (study fees, financial security, intermediate agreement and CIAC mechanics) are read in full in the sibling 'Oncor / ERCOT TDUs' entry above, which cites the order's own PDF text. This statewide rule applies to every ERCOT transmission and distribution utility, including CenterPoint, Oncor, AEP Texas and TNMP, on top of each utility's own tariff. The April 2026 proposed-rule figures this entry previously carried are superseded by the adopted order's figures in the sibling entry; do not use this entry's old PENDING-stage numbers.
