Texas has been a leader in energy production, research and delivery for nearly a century. The world was witness to the original Texas oil boom in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and in a lesser known sequence of events, to the development of one of the safest and best implementation of Nuclear energy, so successful in fact that the world famous University, Texas A & M, has had its own on campus reactor form many years to provide power to its entire facility, serving some 50,000 students and faculty. Most recently, Texas native T-Boon Pickins put forth an initiative to promote wind power generation in the Western sector of Texas, and done so with considerable success due to the steady powerful winds that race down from the mountains at a nearly consistent rate.
The means of power generation with all of these methods, as well as their superb reliability and cost benefit from installer contractor to investor to consumer has only been accelerated by their having been showcased in a state that is known for energy innovation and great ideas: the great Nation-State of Texas. Energy is every where in Texas, along with great ideas & innovation in a way that can be found no where else on earth. Texas is different, as Texans love to say. Texas was founded by pioneers who were required to provide proof of professional worth to move here in the early days of the colonies, and as a result, the families that followed produced generation after generation of hard working, resourceful pioneers in every industry they put their hand to.
The Texas Energy Industry certainly ranks high, and LKT is proud to lead with a full line of products to capture a resource that Texas has never had a shortage of: Sunlight. But unlike the early days of the first oil boom where much oil and other fuels were lost to the process, LKT Solar provides solar collecting units, photovoltaic cells and turnkey packages in any quantity to meet your energy need, and do so with Texas ‘savvy’, smart engineering the provides a nearly 1:1 ratio of input to output, with every little decay over time.
No project is too big, no city so vast that LKT cannot bring it to life with solar products that are decorative and aesthetically pleasing during the day and secure and abundantly useful at night. But the real experience of LKT is in the contact with our product placement group. We would be delighted to visit with your representatives with regard to your upcoming project, or reliably consult with you do develop a perfect plan for solar conversion of even the most difficult lighting project. We believe in our products, but as is the case with so much else, and especially with emerging technology, seeing is believing, Show yourself around our internet presence, then contact us for more information toward finding a great solution to your lighting & energy collection & distribution needs.

Texas House of Representatives Reports This report describes the current status of solar energy in Texas and in other states and outlines anticipated policy proposals for incorporating solar energy into Texas’ energy future.
Texas Solar Device Exemption Guide The Guideline contains general policy, definitions of solar and wind-powered energy devices, examples of different device types, and a descrip- tion of the manner in which the tax exemption applies.
Texas Solar Device Exemption Form Tax Code Section 11.27 provides an exemption from property tax of the amount of appraised value that arises from the installation or construction of solar or wind- powered energy devices used primarily for production and distribution of energy for “on-site” use.
DSIRE Complete Solar Policy Guide Serving as a resource for policy makers and other interested stakeholders, the Policy Guide highlights key policies necessary to facilitate mainstream solar adoption—from reducing upfront equipment costs and streamlicultivating the solar industry and ensuring quality installations.
The Homebuilder's Guide to Going Solar Why go solar in your homes?
Simply put, solar makes sense!
