Not surprising, but you have no idea what you're talking about. ERCOT has been shitting the bed for years as the population of TX increases.
Kindly shut the frick up.

ERCOT doesn't own or manage the generation facilities. They manage the market place and set policies at the direction of PUCT. You seem to know a lot, so what has ERCOT done for years, independent of any governmental agency's directions, that you consider shitting the bed?

FIFY. Politics is 100% the reason for the problems Texas is having and it will get a lot worse. ERCOT only tries to manage best they can within the regulations that are placed on them.

I wonder when/if the DOE and ERCOT will realize that the renewable push is completely fricking up the grid and they had better have a come to Jesus realization that killing the on demand sources (coal, natural gas, nuclear) is crippling the US grid.
The grid continues to be be taxed more and more and they stray further and further away from reliable megawatt sources. Anytime logic is replaced by political pandering influences, nothing ever goes right.

While Texas does have its own power grid and is theoretically independent with the majority of Texas being supplied by the regional transmission organization ERCOT, Texas also has plants in the SPP RTO and has DC cross ties between the Eastern Interconnection and Western Interconnection through DC ties to SPP.
So while Texas can be mostly power supply independent, it does have back up capabilities and those back up ties kept ERCOT from going into the black during the major ice storms in January and February of 2021.

You are so dumb you don't get my comment at all. It's NOT Biden's fault but if Trump were in office he would get blamed. Just like hurricanes and solar flares aren't anyone's fault. Look past your Progressive overlords and read the post again loser.
