The Electric Reliability Council of Texas ensures a reliable electric grid and efficient electricity markets.

Wonder, based on the above on their site, where these historic loads are coming from? They didn’t just suddenly appear.

One could also wonder why those of us up north enduring temperatures well below zero are not suffering like outages.

There is base load and their is peak load, and both need to be up to the task at hand.

If not, it is blackout time, when conditions are not ideal for said blackout.
