Some lawmakers were critical of the fact a third-party consultant, called E3, that studied the proposals didn’t show up to answer questions.Regulators reveal study on ideas to make Texas power grid more reliable
"I think the fact that E3 was not there and all of us were asked to look at this study, you’re going to present proposals, the fact that they’re not there to explain their research and process is bad form," said State Sen. Donna Campbell/ New Braunfels. "In looking at the E3 report, there’s a number of proposals that Chairman Lake, you say guarantee new dispatchable generation, requiring new thermal generation," said State Sen. Charles Schwertner , who is the chairman of the Senate Business and Commerce Committee. "To be quite frank, I don’t see their projections. 5.6 gw, but I don’t see requirement for new generation."
A Public Utility Commission spokesperson told FOX 4 the consultant could not make the meeting because of a scheduling conflict.
How about making it more affordable too. 😏
Oh now they care?!?
Don't wanna hear anything about the grid or electricity bills because obviously we like it this way.
