It's not even summer yet and the electric system in Texas is failing. Again.
If there are blackouts people can die from the heat. Especially in August.
This doesn't look good for the rest of the summer if Texas already doesn't have enough energy for their people.
Texas grid asks residents to conserve power as heatwave hits
Texas's electrical grid operator warned residents to cut electricity use "as much as possible" for the rest of this week, as several days of heat over 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32°C), combined with generation outages, could strain the grid even before summer officially starts.www.nasdaq.com
Yipe.. It can easily be 100 degrees for 18 hours a day in Texas.. .. even in the shade.
We should be less awesome so fewer people flee their communist shit holes and come here and overload the grid.It's not even summer yet and the electric system in Texas is failing. Again.

Yes and people will be harmed.
What about diabetes patients? That insulin has to be kept cold. It can't be put in a refrigerator if there is no electricity.
What about people who need electricity to run medical equipment?
I don't know how people in Texas put up with this.
I am really getting tired of being in the best state in the world. EVERYBODY and their fucking donkey is moving here from commie shit holes like California and it is killing our power grid.
We demand tribute from Cali and NY.
Have they started blaming AOC, yet? Throw in Pelosi, & Obama, and Texans will be so fired up, they won't need electricity. Win/Win!!!It's not even summer yet and the electric system in Texas is failing. Again.

2/3 of Texas electrical generation is powered by fossil fuel. Freezing controls at fossile fuel plants is what caused the power outage. That problem can only happen in the Texas power grid. All the other grids were required to take steps to prevent that long ago.The federal government doesSo Texas has a war on coal?
It was very bad under obama, abated some with trump, and its back worse than ever thanks to biden
Well, you tell me, O'nanny, why has Texas had a 4 MILLION population increase in the last 5-8 years?I am really getting tired of being in the best state in the world. EVERYBODY and their fucking donkey is moving here from commie shit holes like California and it is killing our power grid.

You keep repeating this mantra, and like O.J. thinking he is innocent, you probably are starting to believe it.

The article is written by the AP, who don’t even understand how electric grids work or operate. Texas is not exempt from “federal regulations”. They adhere to NERC regulations. The same as the rest of the US, Canada, and parts of Mexico.But it is. They set it up that way on purpose.The article is full of shit. The Texas power grid isn’t exempt from “Federal Regulations”.It's not even summer yet and the electric system in Texas is failing. Again.

Why Does Texas Have Its Own Power Grid? | Houston Public Media
Basically, Texas has its own grid to avoid dealing with — you guessed it — the feds. But grid independence has been violated a few times over the years.www.houstonpublicmedia.org
The better to fuck you over.
Its not common in TexasThis is common here from June through September the vast majority already do this during this time of year.
Yeah, we'll let you know when the power goes out. So far, it's triple digits and we're all fine right now.This is common here from June through September the vast majority already do this during this time of year.
It's common for you to not have power in the hottest months of the year?
Wow. And you just accept that as normal.
Wow.
Guess what? It's not normal. The rest of the nation doesn't lose power in the middle of the hottest months or coldest months of the year.
The only time we ever lose power is if a storm brought the power lines down.
It's not normal for a state to not have enough power.
Yet you think it is. Wow.
Yes, power outages are somewhat normal during times of peak use. Just ask California, they have outages and brown outs all the time.This is common here from June through September the vast majority already do this during this time of year.

True but you sort of miss the pointThere is no “national power grid” you fucking moron.Texas insists on not being part of the national grid.
Fuck 'em, let 'em bake.
But I heard that Texas and its power grid is awesome and good to go...............????It's not even summer yet and the electric system in Texas is failing. Again.

So...Texas is proud to be compared with California now?Meanwhile this sort of shit has been happening for years in California, but that state has to much of the right political thinking for people like yourself to say anything.It's not even summer yet and the electric system in Texas is failing.

We have power idiot all that is being done is setting your thermostat on 80 and not running things like a washer or dishwasher during the hottest part of the day. It never ceases to amaze how people think they know so much that they don’t actually know.This is common here from June through September the vast majority already do this during this time of year.

Valhalla and shit!Fuck Biden's EPA. We will defy the fuck out of him. War is coming.Texas insists on not being part of the national grid.
Fuck 'em, let 'em bake.
Texas population increase percentage has been falling for quite a while.Well, you tell me, O'nanny, why has Texas had a 4 MILLION population increase in the last 5-8 years?I am really getting tired of being in the best state in the world.
