Epic fail, ERCOT
Really? The Electric Reliability Council of Texas refused to accept responsibility for the disastrous loss of power during San Antonio’s week of snow, ice and frigid temperatures?
ERCOT was warned 10 years ago that power plants and equipment needed to be winterized. Yet, nothing was done for that many years. Did they think we would never again experience winter storms? Are Texans’ lives not worth time, effort or money?
The Legislature is also complicit, with their insistence on a separate grid to avoid federal regulations. This disaster did not need to reach such epic proportions. People did not need to suffer just to make a point.
