Warnings about energy usage in Texas

Anybody else get a warning text/email today about their energy usage in Texas? My energy company sent me one today and yesterday and I haven’t really changed anything. I would think those idiots would know there’s more consumption due to cold.

The whole Texas grid is about to brown out. Having their own grid has consequences.

Reddit says the reason we now have energy warnings, rolling blackouts is because of trump , greedy corporations, and more people having electronics than they used to.

Fedgov made them close the coal plants, sad.

ERCOT had 14MW of power in reserve on Friday and peaked at 72mw. I think we're good.
I'm also involved with the EOP mandate by the RRC. shite has gotten much tighter since 2020.

We haven’t received any notices about shortages or requesting reduced usage. Temps will start to rise tomorrow so we are on the end of this. Texas seems to be one of the few states without rolling blackouts this time.

ERCOT got the green light to bypass emissions to keep the lights on.

I got the same type of email and I am in NW Arkansas. I am on Carroll Electric which is a CO-OP. The power it gets comes from the Southwest Power Pool.
