In mid-January, the municipally owned utility in Garland, Texas, brought a complaint against the Texas Public Utility Commission (PUC), alleging it was unfairly excluded from the bidding process of building competitive renewable energy zones (CREZ). Judge Stephen Yelenosky of 345th District Court in Austin rules that:“The court reverses and remands the agency decision because it is in excess of the agency’s statutory authority, not reasonably supported by substantial evidence, and arbitrary and capricious.”
It now goes back to the PUC for reconsideration.
