Texas vs. the Rest of the Planned Power Pipeline
This chart compares Texas with every other state and DC combined using the same zero-based scale. Headline values separate planned generation from battery discharge capacity because storage does not generate energy. Status controls separate construction started, approvals received, and earlier planning.
Battery MW is discharge capacity, not generation. Combined bar lengths can include co-located resources and are not a completion forecast or interconnection limit.
What does it show?
Texas reports 70.1 GW of planned generation plus 24.9 GW of battery discharge capacity. Every other state and DC combine for 153.2 GW of generation plus 37.4 GW of storage.
Methodology
Reads the EIA-860M Planned sheet, excludes rows whose status is Operating, retains every other published status, and groups technology only for display. Bars aggregate reported unit-level capacity into Texas and a second group containing every other state and DC. Battery storage is measured by discharge power in MW and is reported separately from generation in headline values. Limitations: Planned capacity is not a forecast of what will be completed. The inventory covers generating and storage units at plants with at least 1 MW of combined nameplate capacity. It excludes transmission, substations, many behind-the-meter systems, and unreported projects. No unit in this dataset is assumed to serve data centers specifically. Monthly EIA-860M observations are preliminary and can be revised or change status.
