It’s time for Texas to finally retire the Railroad Commission and PUC to create an energy agency
A combined power and fossil fuel regulatory agency might have avoided the power outages.

No one will soon forget that Texas froze last month, vast portions of the state’s electric grid went dark, and millions of Texans lacked heat and running water for days. Many Texans died. Looking for answers, the Texas Legislature convened hearings for two long days. They summoned a dozen or more witnesses who sit atop corporate and government ladders with responsibility for the electric grid, most of whom accepted some shared responsibility for the failures.
Legislative hearings won’t fix the power grid. Lawmakers need a fresh approach
This moment requires a different paradigm for leadership than what Texans may be used to.

Texans were angered, saddened and frightened by the unexpected massive, multiday power and water outages across the state. Relief felt by consumers seeing lights come back on and water run again is undoubtedly offset by dismay among those who receive astronomical utility or plumbing bills. Some feel no relief at all, having tragically lost loved ones in the storm.
What do we do now? Yes, accountability matters. But, looking ahead to next winter, repair and reform will matter more. For Texans to get the healing and the future they want, they need a say in both.
