ERCOT IS NOW SAYING: Power Outages in Texas Could Last 'Indeterminate' Amount of Time. WTF IS GOING ON IN TEXAS? IS ANY BODY IN CHARGE OF LEADING THE STATE OUT OF THIS CRISIS? HAS ANYONE DEMANDED TO SEE THE DATA SUPPORTING WHAT ERCOT IS CLAIMING RE: POWER SHORTAGE? DO NOT TRUST. VERIFY.

No, they integrated green power into their grid. Frozen windmills, while easier to navigate in mini-golf, produce zero energy.

Nuclear = consistent power, can't really ramp up or down Green = only works with sun is up (solar) or wind is blowing (wind mills) Coal/Nag gas = Only way to handle the spikes. These are being shut down.
