Committee requests updates from ERCOT, PUCT and Public Utility Counsel on supply-chain risks
Summary
The committee opened invited testimony and specifically asked for updates from ERCOT, the Office of Public Utility Counsel and the Public Utility Commission of Texas to inform recommendations on grid supply-chain integrity.
During the April 1, 2026 session, the Chair asked invited agencies to provide updates to inform the committee's evaluation of supply-chain integrity for critical infrastructure. The minutes list the invited agencies as the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), the Office of Public Utility Counsel, and the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT). The record does not include the testimony content or the names of agency representatives who provided updates in this session.
Committee members briefly traded the chair position (Senator Phil King assumed the chair and Senator Charles Schwertner later resumed it) while the invited testimony period was opened. The minutes do not specify deadlines for agency filings, requested documents, or whether the agencies were asked to provide classified or sensitive briefings; those details will determine next steps and any staff follow-up but are not recorded in the minutes provided.
