On January 29, 2026, Oncor filed a stipulation in its comprehensive base rate review proceeding, Public Utility Commission of Texas ("PUCT") Docket No. 58306. The stipulation requests PUCT approval of an unopposed comprehensive settlement of all issues in the docket among the parties to the proceeding. The stipulation provides for:
An estimated increase of approximately $560 million over Oncor's 2024 test year adjusted annualized revenues (an increase of approximately 8.8%);
A regulatory capital structure ratio of 56.5% debt to 43.5% equity;
An authorized return on equity of 9.75%, and a 4.94% authorized cost of debt.
If approved as requested, Oncor estimates the proposed rates would result in an increase to residential customer bills of 3% per month based on 1,000 kWh/month usage at an average retail electric price of $0.15/kWh. The PUCT Commissioners are expected to rule on the stipulation within the coming months. If approved as requested, Oncor currently expects positive impacts to its future earnings, cash flow, and credit metrics.
"Customers in Texas continue to call for a record amount of electric infrastructure to meet unprecedented projected load growth, strengthen the grid, and enhance the reliability and resiliency of our entire service territory. Our new $47.5 billion capital plan is designed to provide a historic amount of investment to meet these needs, and we are pleased to have reached a settlement in our rate review that is supportive of this plan. We look forward to the Public Utility Commission of Texas's consideration of the stipulation," said Oncor CEO Allen Nye. "I would also like to thank our team that worked tirelessly and safely through the restoration required by Winter Storm Fern. I know that any amount of time without power during such difficult winter conditions is a hardship on our customers. Oncor prepositioned equipment and more than 10,000 employees and contractors across our system to be able to respond to customer outages as quickly as conditions allowed. We will continue to prepare our system to be resilient against inclement weather."
Five-Year Capital PlanToday, Oncor is announcing a new five-year base capital plan of approximately $47.5 billion for the 2026 to 2030 period, which includes a projected spend of approximately $9 billion in 2026, $10 billion in 2027, $10.1 billion in 2028, $9.4 billion in 2029, and $9 billion in 2030, reflecting Oncor's important role in providing the infrastructure necessary to support expected continued growth and electrification across Texas.
Oncor's 2026 through 2030 base capital plan has increased approximately $11.4 billion from the 2025 to 2029 five-year base capital plan arising primarily from the following items:
$6 billion for remaining projects in the Permian Basin Reliability Plan ("PBRP") that were not included in the prior five-year capital plan due to pending regulatory approvals;
$2 billion for other new transmission projects;
$2 billion for distribution upgrades and other capital needs; and
$1 billion for transmission projects in the Delaware Basin Load Integration Plan that were not included in the prior five-year base capital plan due to pending regulatory approvals.
Notably, Oncor's 2026 through 2030 base capital plan includes only major transmission projects that either (i) have received necessary regulatory approvals or (ii) are part of the PBRP. For large commercial and industrial customers ("LC&I") seeking transmission-level interconnection, such as data centers, the base plan includes only those projects that have achieved certain development milestones.
In addition to its base capital plan, Oncor has identified approximately $10 billion in potential incremental capital opportunities over the 2026 through 2030 period. These incremental projects include high-voltage transmission expansions in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, Inc.'s ("ERCOT") 765-kV Strategic Transmission Expansion Plan ("STEP") primarily outside of the PBRP for which Oncor is responsible (currently estimated by Oncor at $3 billion for the 2026 through 2030 period), additional transmission upgrades currently pending ERCOT approval, and anticipated updates to Oncor's System Resiliency Plan ("SRP") for 2028 through 2030. Incremental capital opportunities also include LC&I interconnection projects that Oncor believes have a strong likelihood of completion but do not have necessary external approvals or where the project scope is still being finalized.
Regulatory UpdateOncor plans to make its first UTM filing in the first half of 2026, following the receipt of a final order in its base rate review. The UTM, authorized by Texas House Bill 5247 passed in the 2025 Texas legislative session, combines the existing interim capital tracker mechanisms into a single annual proceeding. The UTM filing allows for recovery of costs recorded to a regulatory asset arising from eligible capital investment. In 2025, Oncor began recognizing revenues associated with qualifying investments for eligible transmission and distribution infrastructure placed in service during calendar year 2025 and plans to seek recovery of these costs in its UTM filing. Additionally, the UTM is expected to benefit residential customers by updating customer allocations annually.
In 2025, Oncor filed 16 new Certificate of Convenience and Necessity ("CCN") amendment applications for needed transmission projects and received regulatory approval on 12 applications. Oncor anticipates filing approximately 18 additional CCNs in 2026, including three related to the 765 kV Permian Basin import paths.
Strategic Growth and Operational HighlightsOncor continues to coordinate closely with ERCOT and industry stakeholders to advance extra high-voltage transmission (765 kV) infrastructure that supports regional reliability and long-term economic growth. In December 2025, ERCOT endorsed phase two of STEP, which consists of the non-PBRP projects. In total, Oncor anticipates being responsible for more than half of the investment related to the STEP.
In 2025, Oncor built, rebuilt, or upgraded approximately 3,100 circuit miles of transmission and distribution lines and increased its premise count by over 65,000, reflecting ongoing population and business growth in Texas. Active transmission point-of-interconnection ("POI") requests increased 24% year over year. As of February 25, 2026, Oncor held approximately $3.5 billion in customer collateral for active generation and LC&I transmission POI requests. This collateral, which is subject to refund once projects are placed into service or upon certain other conditions, helps reduce the risk of rate payers bearing costs for projects that are cancelled after Oncor has expended funds toward building the infrastructure.
As of December 31, 2025, Oncor had 562 active generation POI requests in queue, composed of approximately 48% storage, 40% solar, 8% wind, and 4% gas. In addition, Oncor's active LC&I interconnection queue included 650 requests at the end of 2025. Those requests include approximately 255 gigawatts from data centers and over 18 gigawatts of load from various other industrial sectors, demonstrating broad-based industrial growth within Oncor's service territory. Oncor has currently identified at least 38 gigawatts of large load interconnection requests that meet the 2026 Regional Transmission Plan ("RTP") qualification standards and continues to work diligently with additional customers to determine which projects will be included in Oncor's April 1, 2026 RTP filing to ERCOT.
Oncor is deeply engaged with ERCOT stakeholders around the development of a batch study process to review transmission capacity needs for large load interconnections. Oncor continues to advance significant transmission projects necessary to serve new large loads through the ERCOT Regional Planning Group process, which are expected to support approximately 14 gigawatts of new large load.
Liquidity As of February 25, 2026, Oncor's available liquidity totaled approximately $3.6 billion, consisting of cash on hand and available borrowing capacity under its credit facilities, commercial paper programs, and accounts receivable facility. Oncor anticipates these resources, combined with projected cash flows from operations and future financing activities, will be sufficient to meet capital expenditures, maturities of long-term debt, and other operational needs for at least the next twelve months.
