Hmmmmmm in a state that has abundant field of natural gas.

A lot of it goes out of state to AZ and CA. The gas company blames it on Texas electrical problems which has shut compressor stations and thus delivery to the pipeline systems.

Cause: Rolling black-outs in West Texas have impeded the delivery of natural gas coming into New Mexico. Our pipeline system is intact and our crews are working to minimize the impact of this temporary situation.

If I remember correctly the compressors are run by gas turbines, with back up power for the instrumentation. In some installations I have seen the control “air” is natural gas from the system. Things may have changed it has been a while.

in the article? Or from somewhere else? Because if it was in the article, it is not there at the moment.

A friend on another forum just made a post early this AM about an EPA reg that is causing natural gas pipeline companies to switch from gas turbine compressors to electric motors. He predicted that we would see natural gas delivery issues due to this idiotic regulatory decision from EPA.
