What's Happening?
Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC reported a net income of $259 million for the second quarter of 2025, an increase from $251 million in the same period last year. The rise in income is attributed to higher revenues from updated interim rates reflecting increased capital investment, customer growth, and regulated revenues related to Oncor's system resiliency plan. Despite higher interest and depreciation expenses, Oncor's operational highlights include a record $7.1 billion capital expenditure plan and significant infrastructure upgrades. The company is preparing for further expansion with a new five-year capital plan and legislative support from Texas House Bill 5247.
