Tour Energy Innovations Across the State
The Texas Energy Tour is a statewide initiative to provide bipartisan policymakers and legislative staff with a unique opportunity to gain first-hand knowledge of challenges and opportunities facing energy communities while exploring the latest clean energy technologies and energy innovations across Texas. The tour is co-hosted by PowerHouse Texas and our sister organization, the Texas Energy & Climate Caucus. Select experts from our Energy Policy Advisory Council will also join the tour. If you are interested in coordinating a visit during an upcoming tour, please contact us.
We rely on the support of generous sponsors for this program. Please contact our team if you are interested in sponsoring the tour. Our next stop on the tour will be San Angelo in October!
