The Public Utility Commission of Texas is a government agency that regulates electric, telecommunication, and water and sewer utilities within the state. It oversees rate setting and service standards for these utilities and handles consumer assistance and complaint resolution, aiming to protect customers and promote reliable infrastructure while supporting competition in the electric and telecommunication sectors. The agency also engages in multi-state efforts to shape wholesale electricity markets and transmission planning in broader regional grids, while maintaining traditional regulatory responsibilities for electric transmission and distribution, including integrated utilities outside the ERCOT area. Based in Austin, Texas, the PUC was established in 1975 under the Public Utility Regulatory Act to regulate utility rates and services, with its responsibilities expanding to water and sewer regulation in 2013.
