Timmerman Power Plant
Timmerman Power Plant is now fully online and available to provide about 380 megawatts of dispatchable generation to the Texas power grid. When operating at full capacity, the plant will be able to supply enough electricity to power more than 100,000 homes.
Unit 1 connected to the grid in August 2025, and Unit 2 connected in April 2026.
Read Gov. Greg Abbott’s April 21, 2026, news release on the project and its connection to the Texas Energy Fund.
How is this plant benefiting Texans?
As more people and businesses move to Texas, the state needs more dispatchable power that can be available quickly during times of peak demand. The natural gas-fueled Timmerman Power Plant is a peaker plant that can ramp up and shut down in minutes, providing power when it is needed the most.
The plant is located in Caldwell County near Maxwell and adds to LCRA’s diverse generation portfolio.
