The U.S. Department of Energy has finalized a $3.26 billion loan to support the construction of approximately 2,800 miles of high-capacity transmission lines across Texas. According to the Department of Energy, the financing will help expand electric transmission infrastructure in South Central and West Texas, where growing demand from data centers, advanced manufacturing, and oil and gas electrification is placing increasing pressure on the state's power grid. Federal officials say the project is intended to strengthen national energy security, improve grid reliability, and support continued industrial growth. The announcement also highlights the growing debate over the federal government's role in financing major infrastructure projects and the long-term return on taxpayer-backed investments. #Texas #Energy #PowerGrid #DOE #Infrastructure #Economy #EnergySecurity #DataCenters #BreakingNews #Taxpayer #ElectricGrid #Manufacturing #OilAndGas #Transmission #News
