Energy & Oil/Gas Programs

Texas Energy & Oil/Gas Grants, Loans & Incentives

Texas energy companies may qualify for severance tax incentives, emissions reduction grants, state energy infrastructure funding, and federal clean energy programs. From upstream producers to renewable energy developers, these programs support the full spectrum of Texas energy businesses.

Texas produces more energy than any other state — leading the nation in crude oil, natural gas, and wind power generation. The energy sector is the backbone of the Texas economy, supporting hundreds of thousands of jobs across exploration, production, refining, pipelines, renewables, and energy services. State programs like severance tax incentives and the Texas Energy Fund directly support energy infrastructure investment, while federal programs through the DOE and EPA offer funding for emissions reduction, energy efficiency, and clean energy technology. Whether you operate in traditional oil and gas or emerging renewables, government programs can reduce your capital costs and support expansion.

Why Screen

Texas energy companies operate in one of the most incentivized sectors — but many programs go unclaimed

From severance tax reductions on marginal wells to TCEQ grants for emissions technology, Texas energy companies have access to programs that directly reduce operating and capital costs. Federal programs add another layer of support for both traditional and clean energy projects. But the programs are spread across the Comptroller, TCEQ, PUC, DOE, and USDA — each with different eligibility rules and application processes. Our screening cuts through the complexity and shows you which programs match your energy business.

Official sources only

Every program is sourced from official government pages — never third-party directories.

Citation-backed results

Every match includes evidence from the original source so you can verify it yourself.

Money-back guarantee
