Mission

Promoting clean, safe, locally harvested solar energy for every Texan.

  • A membership-based nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, TXSES's unique niche is exemplified in our well-established local chapters in Austin, Dallas, El Paso, Houston, and San Antonio. Having boots on the ground in these major metropolitan cities, which represent nearly a quarter of Texas's 29 million citizens, enables our gifted, dedicated experts to disseminate fact-based, relevant solar information. Activities include conduct outreach to low- to moderate-income communities to provide education on rooftop and community solar projects. Coordinate without state chapters in Austin, North Texas, Houston, El Paso, and San Antonio to educate more Texans about the benefits of solar energy. Enable pathways to jobs and opportunities for advancement in solar energy for women and students of color throughout the state. This includes high school, higher education, and community-level individuals. Educate rural electric cooperatives and small utilities about the benefits of distributed and community solar. Connect with low- to moderate-income and underserved populations so they can be solar consumers. Send out monthly newsletters about current and related news in the distributed and community solar space. Working with TXSES chapter cities, the Solar Energy Internship Program (SEIP) will facilitate pathways to jobs and opportunities for advancement in solar energy for women and students of color. SEIP will recruit solar energy companies to participate, develop a set of best practices for solar energy companies to improve diverse and inclusive recruitment and hiring processes, and engage in ongoing mentorship development.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
