⚡🏡 **WHEN TEXAS NEEDS MORE POWER… WHAT HAPPENS TO PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS?**
Texas is growing—and so is the state’s need for electricity and the infrastructure required to move that power across hundreds of miles.
But there’s another side to that growth.
In this clip from the latest **PEPCo Podcast**, the discussion turns to massive new transmission projects proposed across parts of Texas, including power line towers that could reach approximately **200 feet tall**.
For Texas landowners, that creates a difficult question:
👉 **How do we build the infrastructure Texas needs without sacrificing the property rights of the people who live in its path?**
⚡ New transmission capacity
🏗️ Massive power line towers
🌳 Texas farms and ranches
📜 Eminent domain
🏡 Private property rights
Imagine looking across the land your family has owned for years—only to potentially have a major transmission line running through it.
As Texas continues to grow and electricity demand increases, the battle between **energy infrastructure, eminent domain, and property rights** could become an increasingly important issue heading into the **2027 Texas Legislative Session**.
🎙️ Watch the entire PEPCo Podcast episode, **“The Future of Texas Property Tax: Shaping Change in the 2027 Texas Legislative Session,”** for the complete discussion.
