Houston's energy usage just got better, as Reliant Energy just received a $20 million fund from federal stimulus money to upgrade its electricity grid.
This stimulus is a response to the $3.4 billion American Reinvestment and Recovery Act grant intended to modernize the U.S. energy grid.
The investment boost means Houston will see the development of smart energy products and services so customers can manage their electricity usage, manage electricity efficiency and lower energy costs. Reliant Energy, a Houston electric company, is working in collaboration with Tendril Networks, Inc. to make this all happen.
Houston residents can look forward to lower electricity bills and a more energy-efficient, eco-friendly Texas in the future!
