More than 1.8 million energy customers in Texas are without power, with The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) initiating rotating outages.
Power Outage US reports that nearly two million Texans are without power as numerous energy providers implement controlled outages to control the flow of power. Texas is being hit by a winter storm and facing freezing temperatures and heavy snowfall.
ERCOT entered emergency conditions and began the rotating outages at 1.25 a.m. CT on Monday as the extreme weather conditions facing Texas caused generating units to trip offline and become unavailable.
