How about letting us Texans have more natural gas power plants or even let the
gas be delivered to the plants we have so

Almost exactly 4 years ago we were out up here in Michigan for over 120 hours
after a wind storm took out power to 1 million homes. Large scale restoration
takes time. When the load and supply are imbalanced it can make things worse as

I'm hoping things return to normal soon but also am

Total population is a pretty big difference as you go north, as is how well
infrastructure is actually prepared for snow/ice and cold temperatures in
general.
I’ve been without power all day and have no doubt I’ll cross the 24-hour mark

Electric prices on the Texas spot market are $9,000/MWh. Normally they
are less than $15/MWh. During the summer months, Texas spot market prices
have gone to zero because it has excess summertime wind turbine capacity.
