TruGrid Delivers Three Texas Energy Storage Projects Early and On Budget

TruGrid, a Houston-based leader in utility-scale energy infrastructure, has completed three battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in Texas ahead of schedule and within budget. This milestone highlights the company’s strategic planning, integrated execution, and uncompromising commitment to client success.

"Finishing just one project early and on budget is something to be proud of," said Josh Richardson, Chief Operating Officer at TruGrid. "To do it three times in a row, under challenging conditions, speaks volumes about our people, our planning, and our commitment to doing things the right way."

Despite record-breaking storms and global supply chain disruptions, TruGrid’s structured approach enabled timely delivery. Teams begin planning even before they submit proposals, carefully aligning budgets, schedules, and resources to minimize risk and prevent surprises.

Teams from engineering, supply chain, and field operations work side by side, fostering real-time problem-solving and seamless execution across all project stages.

Frequent communication between field crews, project managers, and clients keeps everyone aligned and accountable. When faced with severe weather or delayed component shipments, TruGrid responds with fast, coordinated action to maintain momentum.

Richardson attributes this track record to “teamwork that is optimized,” a philosophy rooted in early-stage collaboration and carried through to final delivery.

TruGrid plans to integrate AI, robotics, and automation to further improve efficiency, adaptability, and safety. The company sees these technologies as essential to meeting the demands of a rapidly evolving energy landscape.

“These projects show what's possible when you combine great people, smart planning, and a shared vision,” said Richardson. “We’re not just delivering energy—we're delivering certainty in an uncertain industry.”
