A new power plant has been opened by NRG Energy, marking the company's first new facility in over a decade. The Houston-based company was able to move forward with the project thanks to financial support from the state. The Texas Energy Fund provided a loan of $216 million to NRG Energy.
This funding was instrumental in the development of the new power plant. Further details about the power plant and its operations are available from Houston Public Media, the source of this information.
