Built by peopleshaping the futureof Texas energy
TBGA brings together operators, innovators, and leaders who believe grid reliability, infrastructure growth, and long-term energy abundance belong at the center of Texas policy.
Experience first,then the mission
The Texas Bitcoin & Grid Alliance was built by people who saw something early, that flexible energy-intensive industries and grid modernization do not need to be in conflict. In the right environment, they can strengthen each other.
Back in 2017, our founders built the first Bitcoin mine in West Texas. At the time, plenty of people thought it wouldn't work. What followed was real-world proof that serious operators could help reveal new ways to think about load, responsiveness, and grid opportunity.
That experience became the basis for a larger vision, one rooted in Texas leadership, practical infrastructure thinking, and a belief that the state can keep setting the pace for what energy abundance looks like in America.
Today, TBGA exists to align builders, operators, policymakers, and advocates around serious work. Not noise. Not posture. Real conversations, real relationships, and a stronger future for the grid.
People with real-world credibility
TBGA is shaped by leaders with deep ties to Texas energy, infrastructure, and the work happening on the ground.

Gideon O. Powell
Founder, builder, and one of the defining voices behind TBGA's long-term vision for Texas energy abundance.

Clayton Greer
Energy operator and strategic force behind the coalition's direction, relationships, and practical policy thinking.

Bob Wittmeyer
A seasoned market voice bringing high-signal insight into ERCOT, transmission, and the stakes of Texas grid policy.

A coalition people cansee and feel in person
TBGA is not meant to exist only as an idea online. The coalition becomes real through the people in the room, the quality of the conversation, and the seriousness of the work being done together.
That is why Texas Power Summit matters so much. It is the clearest expression of the alliance, a showcase event where leadership, policy, and infrastructure-minded momentum all meet in one place.
