(ERCOT) the agency that manages the state's power grid, is forecasting demand of nearly 85,000 MW on Thursday afternoon and evening. The demand forecast dashboard showed a narrowing gap between demand and expected available capacity getting dangerously close after 6 p.m. as solar generation tends to drop off."

I have solar panels and for a place like Texas it really is a no brainer to push on solar energy.
