AUSTIN (KXAN) — On Wednesday, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) issued a Level 2 emergency energy alert due to “high demand, lower wind generation, and the declining solar generation during sunset” leading to reduced operating reserves on the grid.
While no rolling outages occurred, ERCOT continues to request energy conservation efforts Thursday evening. But in the event that low grid operating reserves re-emerge, it’s important to know what to have on hand in the event of possible outages.
The news there is saying may happen after 7:45pm after the sun sets and wind dies down....25% of power in TX is solar/wind.
After the sun sets? Who could have planned for THAT ONE? Maybe the solar/wind cabal should get Wheels to tax them more.
I don't know, maybe they should have not closed those coal fired plants.
