If you experience difficulty with our translated text or need assistance, please call 51 or 3-1-1 to speak with a representative. As with any machine translation, context and accuracy cannot be guaranteed. No immediate changes to the operation of the facility are expected, and its long-term status will be addressed in Austin Energy's future resource planning efforts.Īs a department of the City of Austin, Austin Energy uses an independent, online tool to provide automated (machine) translations on our websites. The plant creates carbon-neutral electricity by burning wood waste that otherwise would decompose and emit carbon compounds contributing to climate change.Īustin Energy acquired the Nacogdoches Generating Facility in 2019. In Sacul, Texas, about 10 miles northwest of Nacogdoches, the largest biomass plant in the country can produce 105 MW of renewable energy for the Austin area. Solar produces power when generation is needed the most.Ĭombined with the utility's other renewable energy contracts, these resources move Austin Energy closer to 100% carbon-free electric generation by 2035 and to supplying 65% of customer energy needs with renewable energy by 2027. Since the 2010s when Austin Energy began purchasing solar power, it has added several hundred megawatts of generation capacity to our renewable portfolio. In late 2012, we began purchasing wind power from the Gulf Coast, which often produces strong output during peak electricity demand times in the afternoon throughout the year when generation is needed most.Īustin Energy is one of the few utilities in Texas buying significant wind power generation. Since the 1990s, when we began purchasing wind power, we have been able to add several hundred MW of generation capacity to our renewable portfolio.

Much of the renewable energy produced is dependent upon the amount of available wind and sunshine, so the output varies from day to day and hour to hour. All power produced and used is sold and bought through the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) market. The pie chart below shows the percentages of renewable and nonrenewable power being generated right now, in real time, as it relates to our customers' demand. Generation Mix to Meet Total Austin Energy Load Also, we must generate power from other sources (natural gas, coal, nuclear) to meet demand when the sun is not shining and the wind is not blowing. Bonds a many different materials such as wood, metal, hard plastic, aluminum and also some greasy plastics.Austin Energy purchases renewable energy from wind, solar, and biomass facilities to minimize our impact on the environment.Īt a time when technology cannot provide commercially viable, long-term storage of renewable energy, Austin Energy must resort to a generation mix to offset costs of renewable energy and keep costs lower for ratepayers.

Excellent resistance against chemicals, fuels and other external influences. Strong and flexible joint that can withstand high shear and stain loads. Excellent complement to welding, riveting and other mechanical joints. Corrosion-free joint without integrated stresses. Two-component adhesive for joining of larger details where very high adhesion is required. Workable after 4-6 min, hardens between 12-15 min. Can withstand temperatures from –55° C to +120° C and fills dents and irregularities of 1 – 4,5 mm. Bonds a wide range of different materials, such as wood, metal, hard plastics and aluminium.

Excellent resistance to chemicals, fuels and other external contaminants. Gives a strong, flexible join able to withstand shearing and tearing loads.

An excellent complement to welding, riveting and other mechanical forms of assembly. Gives a non-corrosive join with no inherent tension. Two-component adhesive For gluing together large components whenever a powerful bond is required.
