Calling it"anything but reliable," Texas Gov.ordered an investigation into the Electric Reliability Council of Texas amid statewide blackouts in freezing temperatures.
ERCOT is facing fire for its management of the state’s power grid after 4.1 million people were left without power amid record snow and subzero temperatures. Some had been without power for more than 24 hours after generating stations went offline Monday. The outages also shut down water treatment plants, and hundreds of thousands were instructed to boil water before using it.
Oncor released a statement saying it couldn’t rotate through the outages Monday night because of"poor grid conditions," and warned residents to prepare for"extended periods without power." At least 10 deaths have been reported in light of the storm and resulting blackouts. More freezing weather is expected to hit the state Wednesday and some areas will see more snow.
Good for him!!
Lol, two inches of snow and a little bit of ice and the world ends for Texas...what wimps!! It’s all probably God’s vengeance for the state voting for Trump the antiChrist anyway! This could be the first ‘plague’ of the second ten plagues!
The ole failed republicans logic, lie, lie, lie.
Ahem
The Abbott Govenor and your whole story was a LIE!. Why are you lying to your viewers? ERCT (Texas): Frozen wind turbines are just 13% of Texas’s Power Woes. Natural gas, coal and nuclear played a bigger role in blackouts with the main factors being frozen instruments.

All energy sources working well here in Alaska
Perhaps if tedcruz spent less time tasting Donald bin Ladin’s testicles and more making sure his state’s power grid can sustain demand, maybe the people that voted for him in 18 and he will be begging again in 24 would actually be warm tonight.
Republicans can’t lead 😐
To little to late
Douche
Someone show the governor a picture of the windmills all froze to a stop. That’s what we have to look forward to with the green new deal
