The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) manages the flow of about 85 percent of the electricity used in Texas. As the independent system operator serving most of the state, we work to maintain a reliable electric grid, world-class efficient electric markets, open access to the transmission system, and competitive retail choice.
