How we checked this
Checked on October 14, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The article quotes Les saying the sites are not subject to the batch process. The explanation about existing interconnection agreements is given in the article's own voice, not attributed to Les.
Confirmed in the source:
- CEO Jason Les said Rockdale and Corsicana are not subject to ERCOT's batch interconnection process
- Rockdale and Corsicana power already sits under existing interconnection agreements
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- Jason Les himself gave existing interconnection agreements as the reason Rockdale and Corsicana are exempt from the batch process
That does not mean it is false — only that this source does not establish it, as of the date above. If we find a source that settles it, we will re-check and update this page.
