Texas has:
. . . . . . no capacity market payment mechanism,
. . . . . . utilities are not allowed to own storage, and
. . . . . . frequency response markets for the state’s main network operator, ERCOT,
. . . . . . are rapidly reaching its maximum cap.

But, Vistra Energy, identified that some niche opportunities exist,
. . . to integrate a 42MWh battery system, for:
. . . . . . solar energy,
. . . . . . energy arbitrage, and
. . . . . . charging batteries cheaply with off-peak grid power, or renewables.
