I had to make sure you're not trolling, I'm not going to waste my time on a troll.
If we weren't wasting money on windmills and over-regulating our coal & gas plants we wouldn't be in this situation. We were expecting to have 25-48% of wind during this time, it's at 11%. Natural gas was already limited, it shouldn't be. More pipelines.
Our coal plants weren't at max capacity, they've gotten the go ahead to increase, they were limited because of carbon emissions.
We'd only have one problem to solve if it weren't for green shit, local infrastructure.
If they weren't over-regulated in the first place they probably would have had money to maintain and winterize them beforehand.
First, this is a once in a 100 years event. You can not expect them to pay for the engineering and extra equipment in anticipation of that kind of event
Power usage in some areas is up over 500%. Should they have built 5X more power generating stations?
Other states have this problem once in awhile. They get around it because they share electricity with other states.
If TX had this arrangement, there would be no electrical problems at all.
If you want to blame someone, blame whoever made that decision
being a practicing retard does make you an expert on the subject
but i could give a rat's ass what you think
comes back the next day to comment.
I care about you, I don't want you misinformed, retard.
if you think I am misinformed, inform me
facts only
