Don’t mess with wind power.

Texas leads the nation in wind power production.

Right here at home, in 2023, wind represented nearly 29% of local energy generation, second only to natural gas. There are 239 wind-related projects and more than 18,000 wind turbines, the most of any state.

As a 100% clean renewable energy resource, wind power generation protects air and water quality, bolsters the economy, creates jobs, brings stability to energy pricing, and helps create a more resilient grid that is less dependent on old ways of generating power.

DontMessWithWind

Reliable power even when the wind isn’t blowing.

When the wind blows across power-generating turbines, it turns two or three large propellor-like blades around a rotor. The rotor is connected to a main shaft, which spins a generator to create electricity. That electricity is then stored in massive batteries, which the grid draws upon even when the turbines aren’t turning. Even during the worst winter storms, so long as the turbines don’t freeze up they will keep generating power; and if they do freeze, we turn to the backup batteries. So on the Texas Breeze plan, no matter when you need power, your home’s electricity will always be wind-generated.

Our Texas Breeze Plans are backed by 100% Texas wind. These electricity plans utilize wind farms across the Lone Star State to feed clean energy into the grid.

Wind energy (or wind power) describes the process of using wind to generate electricity. Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan—wind turbines use wind to make electricity. Wind turns the propeller-like blades of a turbine around a rotor, which spins a generator, which creates electricity.

Wind is a renewable and clean energy source with a lot of perks. Using wind to produce energy means fewer detrimental effects on the environment, a reduction in the amount of electricity generation from fossil fuels, lower total air pollution, and less carbon dioxide emissions. Plus, wind is a big job creator in Texas. Roughly 26,000 people statewide are employed in the industry, and that number is growing.

Our Texas Breeze Plan is 100% wind energy with rates that are competitive with the cost of power produced by fossil fuels. To find out what rates are available to you, visit gotrhtyhm.com and enter your zip code

If you invest in renewable energy for your home – including wind, solar, geothermal, fuel cells, or battery storage technology – you may qualify for an annual Residential Clean Energy Credit. This credit equals 30% of the costs of new, qualified clean energy property for your home installed anytime from 2022 to 2032. For more information, visit the Residential Clean Energy Credit page at IRS.gov.

The possibility of a blackout is an electricity grid capacity issue, affecting everyone—no matter the energy source. The electricity grid is comprised of many sources of power generation (coal, natural gas, nuclear, wind, solar), so if any of those resources do not deliver the forecasted power needed for everyone, then the grid supply could be less than customer demand (the power you need to keep your lights on).

This could result in potential blackouts. Most of the time, the shortfall in supply is driven by traditional power plants being offline (whether scheduled or unscheduled) during critical times. However, there are some ways to protect yourself from risk through renewable means. For example, if you were to install rooftop solar panels, and were able to store that power through batteries, you could actually use that stored power in times of blackouts (kind of like having gas powered generator backup, but this would be the cleaner way).

Switching to renewable energy has a lot of benefits.

  • When you go green, you’re helping reduce CO emissions and combat climate change, contributing to a cleaner planet.

  • With wind, solar, or hydro, you are also choosing an energy source that won’t run out. That means you are reducing our reliance on dirty fossil fuels.

  • There is an economic benefit too. The growth in renewable-energy sources means more new jobs will be created for people to build and maintain facilities.

No, Rhythm Energy will not buy excess solar electricity on this plan, but we are proud to offer best-in-class plans specifically built for solar buyback. In 2021, we were the fastest growing retailer for rooftop solar home owners, and are happy to serve our solar customers with plans that are unrivaled in the industry.

Not at Rhythm Energy. We are committed not only to 100% renewable energy, but also to 100% transparent pricing. This means no hidden fees, ever.
