History
In 2016, Texas Competitive Electric Holdings (TCEH), parent company of TXU Energy and Luminant, emerged from Chapter 11 (as part of the bankruptcy protection for Energy Future Holdings Corporation).[3] TCEH was then rebranded as Vistra Energy.[4]
Vistra acquired Dynegy in 2018. In 2019, Ambit Energy was acquired, resulting in a 32% residential market share in ERCOT, with NRG Energy as its largest competitor.[5] It also acquired Crius Energy in 2019.[6]
